I noticed on another thread that you are on a shopping ban until the end of March. I am on one until March 21-the first day of my Spring Break when I am planning a huge shopping trip. How are you staying strong? I am finding it so difficult. Banana's spring line is coming out online Feb 15 and I am afraid of stores running out of items. However, I know if I shop and spend my money I will regret it if I have none to spend that spring break week.
LOL, I only just started but it's really hard. I made a list though of my absolute must-have for the spring/summer and I keep it in my wallet. The only way I will let myself break the ban is if something from that list goes on sale or looks like it might sell out. That way I don't feel like I'm depriving myself too much. Also, I cleaned out my closet and found some stuff that I haven't worn in a while so I've been playing around with that and trying to find new ways to wear older stuff. Seeing the money add up in my bank account is pretty good motivation too, cause I can imagine all of the fun I'll be able to have with it later rather than just buying little things here and there.
