You snooze, you lose! So there were these drill bits on sale yesterday online, and I thought to myself, I’ll buy it tomorrow, along with my chocolate and other item. Well, the drill bits got sold out, and my choco won’t be delivered till next week. Apparently 2d shipping takes 3d (2d shipping means I get it Friday). Since Monday is a holiday, it won’t get delivered till Tuesday. Yes, I want my chocolates now, damnit!! I wanted it all in one box, instead of them putting 1 item into 1 box, so I waited till today to purchase all 3 items. No drill bits and no chocolate. ARGH.

LOL, so the christmas shopping continues? haha.
Yes, it does, because unlike people, objects aren’t mean, like some humans. And you can always throw them out 😛
Hey, not that i’m complaining. Just ordered a few shirts and another videogame so i wouldn’t dare criticize the extended christmas shopping period, lol.
I don’t do much shopping shopping (unless it’s on sale / heavily discounted), and well, a good bargain is awesome 🙂
Shopping is also a coping mechanism for a lot of people. As long as it doesn’t go overboard it’s a good stress reliever. I did return something that’s $108 for something on sale for $14. 😛
Yeah, when it becomes compulsive it’s not a good thing at all (been there, coping mechanism). I often spend time looking at stuff online but it’s always bound to drop price, so i spend more time looking than buying… this year tho, yeah, some offers where too good to pass on. That’s quite a feat btw, replacing an item for something almost 10 times cheaper, lol. And yeah, i’ll stop stalking your posts about buys, you’ll think i’m some sort of weirdo or something (on a suicide site? go figure).
Oh you’ve no idea the deals I get sometimes, with rebates, on sale + using discount codes, free shipping, etc. I used to scour the internet for deals, yes it’s much more browsing than actually buying, but if I see a great deal… 😛
I don’t actually buy very much per se. I shopped way more in previous years. Yes, even internet shopping gets too “hard” when you’re too depressed. It actually takes a lot of “work” research and find the best deals.
