Spending Ban Update #1

This post is really more of a note to myself to say "Hey, you have not been doing very well on your spending ban." In addition to the the purchases I blogged about here, I also picked up a number of items on HauteLook (theBalm and my very first Diptyque candle!), Origins, eBay, Burt's Bees and a recent 40% off Revlon and Wet n Wild sale at Rite Aid. Yes, that is a shed load of stuff that I don't need. I'm happy, but not proud, so I'm going to extend my spending ban until I go on vacation in late May - I can't remember if it's the week before or after Memorial Day.

Additionally, I've decided to reward myself for using things up as follows:

Cosmetics - $2
Skin/Hair/Body Care - $1
Samples - 25-50 cents depending on size

With that money I am allowed to buy whatever I like. Ideally, I would hope I save it up for something nice and luxurious! I really hope my will power picks up and I make it til May!
