Just say NO!
Last night ran some errands with my family. BJs had a $4 off coupon on Berillo olive oil. But, I just said NO! No, because I have an unopened bottle of oo at home. NO, because the coupon has yet to expire and if I go back I can use my BJ bucks and also buy the salad spinner that folks have been using for rebatching and maybe throw in some spatulas while I'm at it. That is like getting if for free.
And yes, I could be using that extra to buy groceries, or school supplies, or cleaning items, but it seems that reward $$ should be spent on well, a reward and so perhaps I really do need to use that today before the coupons expires or worse yet there is a serious run on the last 5 remaining salad shooters.
What the heck was I thinking? I'm going to have to waste a few gallons of gas to go back up and buy all that stuff.
Next time I will try to be positive and just say YES!! :wink:

Same thing, here!! I just wish there was a store locally that carried a good selection of 'stuff' so I didn't have to browse online so much. Let's see...I ordered a bunch of molds the other day from one company, a bunch of FOs from another, and I've got an online shopping cart waiting to be purchased from a third company that's full of colors.
AND I JUST STARTED THIS HOBBY LAST WEEK!
Somebody, please disconnect my internet or something...I can't seem to stop.

Me too , it won't cost much , I can buy the oils at superstore , you can make the molds , several thousand dollars later I am still buying stuff . He doesn't mind though , he is furnishing his workshop . We just take turns ordering the things we just have to have :wink:
It's crazy , but I love it .

I am a self confessed addict of Fragrance oils. 
I have so many and sometimes l just sit and have a smellathon,when l pass the drawer l keep them in l have get my fix by just opening the drawer to have a sniff.
If somebody mentions something l haven't got it doesn't matter if its oils or butters ,colours l have to have it.Since l live in Australia where soap supplies are few and far between ,l haunt the US soap sites drooling. .I have been hinting that the US would be a good place for a retirement holiday,little does hubby know that as soon as the plane touched down l would be off and running to the nearest soap supply shop.

I have to say I am not a real lab color fan anymore , they are hard to get consistent color with for me anyway , I have more luck with micas and other colorants .
