My spending habits have not changed.

I bought some new plants, real and faux. If I have to stay here, I can make it more pleasant to look at!

In the past month:

Pedisand (now sold out on QVC) on LTS. Where has this been all my life, and why is QVC no longer offering it?! Incredibly easy & effective.

Mini personal size fan. Runs on batteries or plug the USB cable into my laptop. Use it every day at my desk, out on the deck or in the car at drive-up church service. Useful!

Jockey Elance cotton panties, Read about them here. Bought a 3-pack at a re-opening store for $3.50! Price and comfort- outstanding.

2 pairs H by Halston Jeans- LTS. Crazy good price, very good fit and comfort. Will not be wearing jeans until fall weather returns.

At the reopened thrift store:

6 clear cut glass dessert/ salad plates and a set of espresso cups & saucers:

$2.00 for all.

All are good & useful purchases. Best part: I did not break the bank on any of them.

I never found out I needed something after purchasing it. If I really "needed" it, I knew I did, the reason for buying it.

I don't really need anything. I have lots of clothes and sandals in reserve. Haven't been out much and still plan on staying home a lot as things open up in NJ.

I've been very cautious in my spending. I am reluctant to order from QVC due to all the complaints about shipping. I've done some shopping locally using curbside pickup.

I just purchased K49474 - 10 piece Cooks Essential Cookware - Blue. I had an old set of Wearever Pots - where the non-stick was peeling. When I saw the Cooks Essential on-line on the Q --- I knew I needed it. Great Value -- and I like the non-stick.

I also purchased from Costco on-line: 12 pack of Mamamango Moscato; 6 piece Assorted Rose Gift Set Wine; and 3 different sizes T-Fal pans. Last night I was frying a sausage in one of the T-Fal pans - and I set off the smoke alarm.

@CherryHugs I guess I probably buy stuff all the time that I don't need. Today it was a dozen red roses from Trader Joe's, just $6.99. After working this morning in the yard moving rocks and working on a drip system, I felt I deserved them, but didn't need them so I splurged and bought them for myself.

I guess one of my weaknesses is Barefoot Dreams items. I have many and am loving the new colors, so I got a couple of those this week.

Hard to believe since it's nearly 100 degrees outside, but they are wonderful to have in the fall and winter.

And so here's what the landscaper (me) got today!

I just bought two tank tops and a pair of canvas sandals that I absolutely did not need - they were marked way down and I will "need" them next summer. Blair - two tops and a pair of sandals for less than $18, free shipping.

I didn't know I needed haircutting scissors, clips, and more combs. But when I decided to cut my growing hair during this pandemic, I figured I needed them and bought them. I also didn't know that I needed an Otterbox Popsocket cell phone case for my new phone, but it's such a convenient (& cute) way to hold onto my phone that it's a necessity Lol.

Funny you should ask.... just yesterday afternoon I ordered a new Samsung Galaxy Tablet. Wasn't my plan, and I certainly wasn't shopping for one, but saw a great deal while shopping for something else and I couldn't pass it up. (My old Samsung Tablet has been on the fritz for months!) It shipped 2 hours after I ordered it and I should receive tomorrow.

I recently ordered the Northern Nights TSV pillows. Went to pharmacy yesterday for alcohol, hydrogen peroxide, multivitamin, and Citracal. They didn't have my multivitamin so I will order from Amazon. Other than groceries don't need anything else. I did order some masks from QVC awhile back.

I have really cut down on my spending. However JTV has such good prices I treated myself to a chocolate Bella Luce ring. It is lovely. Wearing it now

I think it's healthy to purchase little gifts to ourselves like this. Especially now. Something pretty that makes you smile and didn't put you in debt....all good. @sunshine 919 your ring sounds lovely. I bought a bella luce ring a few years ago and it's a keeper!
