I have a huge list of things I'd love to get if I wasn't on a no-buy.

Sometimes it helps to just blurt it out, and acknowledge that I want it! here is my wishlist:

- Complete Series of "coupling" (english tv series) on DVD

- pearl necklace

- a nice selection of teas to keep at work - white, green, black.

- some stuff from the bodyshop fall collection

- crest white strips

- twilight book series

- large size of virtuose mascara by lancome

- mollini shoes

- more lip pencils and lipsticks!

ok phew.. I feel a bit better now... still craving shopping though!

how about you? what would you get if you could?

 
Haha, im never on a no buy, but i think this thread is gonna make the no-buyers want to go buy stuff LOL!

the temptation!

lol, I hope not! now that I've mentioned what I want I can stop thinking about them, since I don't have to remember them!

No buyers, I AM NOT ENABLING YOU!! *warning poke in the side*

 
This is going to be a pretty long list. I'm not necessarily on a no-buy but very, very tight budget right now so I can treat myself to something every couple months right now.

So, from Sephora:

MUFE high definition foundation and powder

Laura Gellar smoke signals kit

Lolita Lempicka forbidden flower fragrance

CARGO bluray blush/highlighter

CARGO Mozambique eyeshadow palette

From MAC:

Dainty, pleasantry, gentle mineralized blushes

181 brush

180 brush

Mink and sable eyeshadow

Bigger purchases that I'd save for if I wasn't on a budget:

oooh I love those items, especially the bag!

Add to that - replacement for my Gucci 2 perfume! and something with orange blossom scent in it (seriously, it would be cheaper to just buy some orange blossom essential oil. BUT THAT WOULD BE BREAKING NO BUY! haha!)

Sweet Orange Blossoms?
 
B, did you enjoy the books? I want to see the movies and I do want to read the books but I haven't been around to the library yet. I'm tempted to buy them but I want to buy them as a set, and since I haven't read one I wanted to see what I thought of the series first.

As for the sweet orange blossom oil.. I've seen it.. but if I allow myself to buy it, then I will allow myself to buy other things, so I haven't bought it.

20% off in emporio shoes today, and 75% next door in ZU shoes. I didn't even go in because what is the point? I might find something I really wanted!

but since I'm saving for italy, I will need all my money for shoes! yay!

 
I LOVED the books. I really enjoyed them, I think now that she has brought all of them out, that it might be cheaper buying them in a boxed set?

Neroli is what the sweet orange blossom essential oil is called, I know this, cos coincidently I had to bottle some at work today.. I stank of the stuff all day lol

I would have died and fallen off the no buy rails if I was tempted by even the sounds of those sales in Emporio and Zu! lol

Italy? I have missed something.. that's what happens when you're away from MUT for a few days... "runs off to find appropriate thread"

If you can get it on sale and you're on track with saving, I'd get it haha.

 
What a fantastic topic!

If I could buy what I wanted right now, I'd buy:

-Amazon Kindle (then download all the books I want, including the Twilight series, The Other Boleyn Girl, The Spiderwick Chronicles, the last Harry Potter book, The Golden Compass, etc.)

I really REALLY want one! Tempted to throw it on my credit card...but NOOOO!

The one thing I'd save for if I wasn't on a budget:

Zodiac-2.jpg


It's a zodiac bracelet...the zodiac is in colored diamonds, while the rest of the "sky" is made up of colorless, white diamonds. 18k gold.
