I have been shopping online and fill my cart, but do not buy. I revisit my shopping bags bout every day. I eliminate some impulse buys. keep the gotta haves.....hope the arestil available in nov...ooooooooooooooo
The hardest place not to buy though will be right on this website's classifieds. I HAVE to check them everyday...even though I don't 'need' anything.

Funny you should mention this. I'm doing a crafting supply moratorium from December 1, 2010 to November 30, 2011. I posted a topic on this and everyone had something to say (some, a LOT to say!)
I'm good for batting, backing, thread, fabric. Really. I've allowed myself things like needles, and I suppose if I run out of thread that would be a must, but I don't think I will!
Feel free to follow my blog:

(I wasn't going to say anything, but since you started it... :lol: )

When you start is up to you. I would recommend choosing a date before 1 January 2011.
I'm starting now because I've had a wee blast at the sales.
While my stash doesn't even remotely compare to others, when I think about what I have - really I've probably got enough to keep me going for 2 or 3 years.
I've got;
* several WIPs (4 that I can think of already - but I know there's more),
* BOMs (not started),
* Ryan McKenna kits (not started), and
* the stash.
I want to get my spending under control - and this is a "fun" (yes it really can be fun) way to do it.
Confessions - why not. Tomorrow will always be other day, and another chance to get back on track.
