Do you suppose my dream is telling me something

For the last little while, my husband and I have discussing with our younger son that maybe we should try shopping at Costco, but when my son told us the cost of membership, my husband said it would be too expensive. Now I have also had a problem losing weight, and also was thinking of getting an organizer Buxton carry all purse, as well as comparing Costco with our other large superstore, Superstore. So here is what happened in my dream. I was in this big shopping center, ala Costco and Superstore combined, I had picked up a large square pedometer as I needed to lose weight, and had my credit cards with me when I entered the store, then when I got to the cashier's, they were all gone. I had my regular purse with me, the kind when you stash most of the stuff inside and my credit cards had gotten loose and were no longer there. Well I do not know what happened, but I found them, that the card holder had gotten lose and I went picked up the products and took out my credit card, paid for them, and woke up. Now what do you suppose my dream was telling me, that I need to get one of those "as seen on Tv organizers" or that I had better stick to shopping in smaller stores?

I think one thing for sure it's telling you and that's to be very careful with your credit cards! Seriously, maybe it was telling you to be especially careful if you're going to be shopping in a large, likely very crowded store because that makes it much more likely for thieves to be around and easier for them to steal when there are lots of people. However, if it were MY dream I'd definitely take it to mean I had to get one of those Buxton purses...lol! I DO want one of them and I think I'm going to get one soon. They have an "As Seen On TV" department at our local CVS and they have them there. They're the same price but of course there's no shipping charge. Annie

I really should go down to Zellers and see if they are there. I know I do not like the regular purses they have there, they have no slot for credit cards except if you buy the large cheap vinyl purses, but the leather ones they have there, you just things in and search around.

I don't know what the prices are like in your area but I know even in K-Mart where I was looking last week for the regular kind of purses you mentioned, the kind where you just put stuff in and hope for the best, they wanted as much or more than those Buxton organizers cost. $19.99 isn't bad at all for a nice purse and I imagine these will last a long time. My daughter is a hand lotion fanatic, she has a BIG bottle of lotion with her at all times, and those look like she'd have room for more than one bottle in one of those and they don't even look that big and bulky.

Well if it were a simple dream, like floating in the air, or being on a strange planet or seeing a horse in the middle of the field, then I would think it was just a simple, but we were discussing shopping at either Costco or Superstore, and were comparing what it cost for the membership of the former compared with getting things with no membership fee. The reason was that we were also thinking of whether any of those stores offered free delivery and whether it would make sense for me to go to another store. Also I was thinking that maybe I should get a purse as seen on TV. For some reason I do not have simple dreams, most of them are something to do with what I am concerned about. That is also a good reason why I do not like watching horror movies before going to bed or I dream about them.

I personally don't believe that dreams mean any thing except that something is on your mind. Sometime when we have been worried about something it will show up in our dreams. If you think you should pick up on of those as seen on TV organizers i would look first at some discount stores like the Dollar general or Family Dollar or whatever you have up there.

Sometimes those "as Seen on Tv" items show up at Zellers or Walmart and then I can really take a look at them. The Dollar stores here in Canada do not have that good selection, mostly stuff that will fall apart when you look at them and I am more interested in a leather purse then a vinyl one. I like things that last. But it is amazing how the dreams reflect what is really going on in your life.

Hmm it's hard to tell what this dream really means because it came from your mind and not anyone else' on here. Maybe this dream is telling you to buy something or maybe it is telling you to shop in smaller stores it's hard to really tell because I've never really had a dream like this before. Good luck on finding out what it meant try getting a dream defining book they tell you what a lot of dreams are supposed to mean.

I figure it is trying to tell me that I had better not join Costco. It costs too much and the savings would not be worth it.

Do you use the medium of dreams to give you answers to your nagging questions? Otherwise, you are just reading too much into this dream per se, and may be your subconscious was just "advance" playing some drama to give you a glimpse. May it musta been in the free-running mode to show up all your inmost fears only.

Most of my dreams are about something I was thinking during the day or a problem or sometimes it is something that would have happened if things went a different way, like if I had decided to go to University, the dream would be living in a very fancy house, etc. Or what things would be like if I worked hard or if I did not. So it seems I have these practical dreams unless I am thinking of writing a story or see something on Tv.

Yes dreams sometimes try to tell us something I believe in that but sometimes they're only dreams. But I don't know what the message of your dream is maybe you dreamed so because you were nervous or it's only to be careful :P :D So I suggest to don't think about it anymore :D

I guess you have to do some homework before choosing where to buy from. Sometimes it i s hard to juggle between a shop and another. Some might have bargains on one product but not on the other and vice versa. HAPPY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR. © ronaldinu 2008

well dreams can be premonitions, something that you have been thinking or wanting to do, or just your subconscious reminding you of something you have forgotten. in this case you were thinking about your discussion, the cards and the stores. it could reflect your hope to be able to shop at a store that is costco and superstore combined. or it could show that you will someday be able to shop at the store you want, because in your dream you lost the credit card and then found it so it could also be some financial problem regarding card or stores is solved. it is a happy ending dream so hopefully it is a happy ending solution to your desire.

hello suspenseful, Not all the time, but sometimes they do. Maybe you were thinking about it before you sleep that's why you dreamed about shopping thing. And because of this, it made you think that your dream is telling you something. I remember that someone told me that when you dreamed of water and flowers, you will receive or you will have a good luck. And for how many times of dreaming that, it's indeed true. But sometimes i'm having a dream related to what I'm thinking before I'll sleep. Sometimes it made me think but most of the time I'm not taking it seriously.

I think that dreams are a big part of our life and when we remember our dreams they seem to be holding a meaning which is not clear. There might be something in your dream which relates to your waking life. Cheers!!

Come on, I really don't think this is a serious dream that you can take into consideration. Most dreams are related to what the brain has as 'suspended' activity, things that it didn't have time to process during the day. The thoughts are not wasted, ignored or forgotten, but put into dreams. So you probably think you need that bag quite badly, so that your subconscient "pushes" this thought out of you, by trying to put it into reality. That's ALL! You can simply get that bag and put it out of your thoughts.

Dreams come from your subconscious mind, so maybe you were thinking about something similar before you fell asleep. I don't believe that dreams tell us about anything; they are just images from our subconsious mind.

I always have the dream,but most of the time,just take it easy! sometime, we received a message,then take a point into the deep part of the brain unintentionally,in this condition,the consciousness will be awaken up in the night.One day,my friend told me a accident for scaring me, in the accident,one piece of the car flew through the waist of a person just like the movie,and the person was killed into two pieces.I was scared but forgot it soon,however, at that night, I dreamed a person just had the half body.

Hmmm.... That's pretty interesting. I often have dreams about things that are going on in my life that I think about pretty constantly. I think your dream might be telling you to buy the stuff to help you lose weight, no matter what your obstacles are????
