    Since I broke my ankle I mostly buy Naturalizer or Easy Spirit shoes for work. I bought a pair of cheap sneakers at Payless and my ankle always hurts after I wear them. So buying shoes, that's a bit of a splurge for me.

    I did splurge at Bed Bath and Beyond and bought a couple of really plush bath towels. First time I have ever bought anything more than average towels and they're so nice to use!

    I've been Boo'd ... right off the stage!

    Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!
    Brrrr, I've been Frosted! Thank you, Asiel and Pomtzu!

    I hate shopping for clothes but when I do I try to buy things on sale or on clearance. My mom loves to buy things on sale and some times she'll buy me some clothes too. I wear jeans and casual shirts at work so I don't need to shop for dress clothes. I recently shopped for some jeans at Kohl's and I decided to look at Levi's. Some of them were $10 off and then I had a 15%off coupon and also a $10 off coupon which I could use. One pair that I liked I had to ask what the price was because I wasn't sure if it was on sale. It turned out to be only $4.99 because it was a clearance item. I ended up spending about $30 for two pairs of Levi's jeans because the other pair was only $10 off. I spend a lot of money on cat food and litter but luckily there's a Pet Club that I can go to so I do save money shopping here rather than shopping at Petco or Petsmart.

    I also do not enjoy shopping for myself. Shopping for others or my dog is another matter.
    I do not like to pay full price and look for the best deal via the internet.
    As 4 buying clothes, I am a jeans, casual tops and tennis shoes type of woman.
    And casual clothes are always on sale.
