OK who wants to do a shopping ban with me?

[misshark122]

I think I personally want to try it... until August maybe... lol. Is that too ambitious?

[NachoProblem]

After I pick up these pencil skirts and order my bubble necklace, I'll play

[misshark122]

Haha sounds like a plan!

[Deleted]

Yes. Let's. I thought I was doing good the last two weeks but I need to throttle back now. I *think* the shopping is out of my system now. When should we start? Maybe we should start it before the weekend so I can't do any more damage.

[quorra]

I have one skirt I have to pay for via eBay, then I'm in. Can we start on Monday?

[house]

..And miss Nordstrom sale? No way! I just got a temp job and I am excited about the nords sale! I don't know what I will get from this store but I have a feeling it will be Kendra Scott earrings! I don't "need" anything except the bubble necklace off of eBay. So I can only ban myself till July! LOL! And after this I can start the ban again. :-)

I'll give it a try. I do not need to be spending anymore money and we are getting ready to do some home improvements.

What if you run out of a product and need a refill? Do you buy it or try to hold out until after the shopping ban?

you still buy it. For me, I mean clothes and other non-necessary items. I'll do it until July 15th and then reassess, haha.

I will join!!!!

[kkloth]

Me! Me! I want to join! Well not want but really should. Especially since I just hit jcrew, H&M, f21 AND limited. And everyone (except 21) was having crazy good sales! No mooooore shopping!

When are we starting??

[NachoProblem]

We should just do a challenge to see who can last the longest!!!!

[littlemissladybug]

I will join. I just bought wedges, a camera, tops and undies. I'm hoping to get the CC bill before DH does. But I do need some jeans and/or capris. I literally own two pair of dark blue jeans and one pair of black.

[mrsee]

No can do....Anniversary sale is in a month

[sailorgray]

I'm in. I just became a SAHM and am trying to really cut back on things. I tend to be a thrift shopper anyway, but that can add up, too. My only concern is if I see an awesome deal on something at a thrift store....hmmm. Like the other day, I got a brand new pair of 7FAMK for $10 at my Goodwill.

[jchokie79]

I'm in, I've been out of control and have a wedding to pay for. However I will start just as soon as I order the new Macbook Pro.

[emyinpink]

I'm on a ban until the anniversary sale but not for that!

[fashionx]

I might be able to do this for a month or so. I don't really *need* anything right now. What I really need to do is go through my closet and put stuff on the sell/swap board, or ebay. Before I start buying stuff for fall. I'm so bad at freezes though. I could go weeks without buying anything until I tell myself I'm not supposed to buy stuff. Then it all goes out the window. I need better discipline!

I'll do it until end of August.

Sorry, I meant the Pro Retina that was rolled out earlier this week. It's available now but on back order for 3-4 weeks.

We were just on a spending freeze until we closed on our house (from start to finish it lasted about 2 1/2 months). It was so hard! I ended up just not leaving the house pretty much except to get gas and groceries, and deleted all of my store sale emails right when they came. lol

Now that the freeze is over I feel so guilty actually buying stuff!

[Deleted]

I am in. I am not buying any more clothes until I dont fit in my current ones.
