Wish me luck! Going on a No-Buy/Swap Break

Starting Aug.22/09 - Sept 23/09 I am going on a No-Buy/Swap Break.

I could technically start it today but I have some packages coming in (want to make sure items arrive okay etc.). This break will consist of no buying and swapping M/U or clothes.

I've been meaning to do this since begining of August. But I had a 'wakeup' call this past week with life&family... and it must be done. This is going to be tough.

I'm not alone on this journey, shexilicious also planned on going on a no-buy. Hurray for moral support :) If you're planning to go on one or are on one let me know too!

However during that time I will have more time to look over items I already have, update more on my blog... and save... ;) I wish I could hide my c.c but unfortunately I do have other items to purchase (Bus Passes and Tickets, Groceries).

Upcoming Posts:
- NYX Palettes (as per. previous post)
- E.L.F Haul #? lol
- Maybelline Stylist Smokes Quads

  4. Good luck! I've tried No Buy several times... it usually turns into a Sometimes Buy (I have no willpower). Looking forward to your e.l.f. post!
