Since dinner is all planned out, the laundry is finished, the house is clean enough - what's left? Two things, either make a few pennies here or spend money on other sites. I took some time out and did a little shopping, mostly for me but I did get my husband a Christmas gift. It is was nice out I would have been playing ball with Ruby but, oh well! Do you find yourself shopping online when the weather keeps you inside?

I have wish lists, I can add whatever I want to think about for "later" this keeps down much of my impulse spending

I am a buyer not a shopper. When I purchase something it is because it's needed and I don't mess around.

@AbbyGreenhill I emotional shop. I have learned to keep this in check with wish lists. I hit wish list instead of buy. Later I edit the lists with things I want, or, if I met a goal, like sticking to a better eating plan for a week, pick a small thing off them to actually get. It has helped.

I enjoyed a bit of shopping online last week. There was some washi tape on Amazon that I could not ignore. I ordered 21 rolls of washi tape all together. The really nice thing is that it was all Amazon gift cards that I earned online used to pay for it.

I often go shopping online and the weather and season doesn't have an effect on my purchase. But perhaps in summer we will spend more money for the air-conditioner charges since it is hot.

I do not like to shop online so that is not a problem. i rather take a walk outside, and go to the shopping centers when I want to buy anything. I think the only thing I buy online is air ticket and hotel booking. Other than that, I rather go to the shops.
