How obsessive are you?!

[mrsg123]

When you find something you Must.Have, how obsessive are you when it comes to tracking it down?

Brought to you by my weekend of stalking Nordstrom for sizes.

Just me then.

Nope. You're not alone. Solidarity.

Oh good!

[mrsee]

I don't sleep till I find it!

On a scale of 1 to 10, with 10 being "incredibly super duper obsessive," I'm a 97.

Last Spring, I drove all over kingdom come looking for some limited edition $5 makeup.

I stalk stuff online even after I've bought it because I'm convinced I will either find it cheaper or they will come out with a sequel that I will love even more.

I only go as far as sales alerts and calling stores out of state. Not too obsessive, right? Now if I had to get on the road to drive out of the state.. nah.. that will never happen. LOL!

[blondemoment123]

My H is upstate for training and there's a dept store there that has a top I really want. I begged him to look for it if he has time.

I realize this will never happen lol

100% obssessive. Like I will call every store in the state obsessive.

[holdingthestars]

A restraining order might be required for me in some cases.

[treedimensional]

Yeah I have definitely crossed state lines. I have even considered international travel to get specific items, but I've always been able to find them before it got that bad.

I'm obsessive and indecisive which IMO is a horrible combination! I obsess, find said object and then have a hard time pulling the trigger. lol I usual end up buying way more than I should anyway.

[FormerCityGirl]

Very. I check the stores, see if it can be shipped, and have planned some weekends away to get stuff. I know all the malls in several states and will cross state lines if necessary, but remember it's 30 minutes each way to the crap grocery store here.

I didn't pull the trigger on a limited edition handbag and went back later the same day it was gone and could have cried. So I called my mom (who's the same way) and we called every store in the country it seemed like. Turns out we finally got a CS agent that was helpful and found one left in their Hawaii store. Haha so I purchased it and had it shipped to me.

So I'd say pretty obsessive on things that I end up falling in love with and "must have". Haha

I need to see this bag!

[mrsg123]

Thank god you are all just like me! Lol.

I'm shockingly not that obsessive. I can't think of a time where I was so obsessed with an item that if it was sold out I was heartbroken. I can usually find something else I like as much.

[joanis018]

Really obsessive.  A few years ago I literally started blind calling Nordstrom stores to find the Tory Burch anniversary sale riding boots.  Found them and it was so worth it.  Recently became obsessed with a top at H&M to finally get it and realize it looks awful on me.  And last week I became obsessed with finding the silver Birkenstocks and finally tracked down a sole pair at a JCrew in New Jersey.  They're scheduled to arrive today.  If I become obsessed with a sold out item, I almost always find it.  Including that one time in college I became obsessed with finding chanel's black nail polish color and paid an arm and a leg on ebay.  That, I regret, ha.

Depends. I once used my travel to another country to find something I was dying to get my hands on.

[bimbi284]

Hi. Have you met us?

There's been plenty of times when ladies have used the S&B bat signal to hunt down items. Joanis got me a top from H&M that I was obsessed with, and I've hunted down a bag for my mom and a friend by calling stores all over the country.

[xokell2]

I definitely become obsessed with procuring a desired item but usually once I get it the lust kinda wears off and I wonder why I went to such extremes. This statement kinda reminds me of my pre-married dating life

Lol- so true!

Let's just say I wanted a pair of Prada shoes some years ago, but they were out of my budget. Every few weeks I would search for them to see if the price went down. This continued for 2 full years (maybe even close to 3), until I finally found them in my size and at a much more reasonable price.
