@@eastofthesun -- one other option would be to think of it as spending the $10 you earned during the first 10 days. So you won't get the $10 for this week, but you're kind of back to zero -- a restart of sorts.
I was horrible, but I'm not going to let it stop me from continuing on this journey. For me it's about being mindful of why I want to shop. And while I've not been perfect, I've definitely made progress.
I found another of my lost items, too! The bag with some pre-Christmas candles from BBW was in my CAR. Argh!
Still on the lam: Sesha mask, passport, kitchen light bulbs.
Big oops in spoiler
Said goodbye to: a non-working wallflower plug-in, stila lip gloss, CK one mascara, dr jart pore mask (used it), and a few other things I'm sure I'm forgetting.
Cleaned a spare bedroom and have worked on getting the recycling where it needs to be -- in a bin, not sitting in my house waiting to go in the bin. I also managed to put away pots and pans. I have to hand wash my Calphalon and I have a bad habit of just pushing it around the counter instead of actually putting it way.
Baby steps...

I'm having a moisturizer crisis. Well, I was. I was in need of a moisturizer that didn't just sit on my skin and accumulate oil. I was noticing an increase in junk in my pores and thought perhaps my moisturizer wasn't the right one. So I snagged the PTR glycolic hydrating gel. Both Ulta and Sephora SAs suggested this, so we'll see.
I was also ready to try something with retinoids, so I picked up the Sephora bag w/ samples. The biggest oops was probably the Christmas clearance stuff at Sephora. I've been on a quest to find something to help w/ my eyes and the FAB kit had it. I didn't need it, but it was something I had been looking forward to trying. My 10% coupon for VIB was about to expire, so I bit. *crying just a little*
