I'll probably never learn my lesson

You know those things you probably shouldn't do. But, you do them anyway, and then you're rewarded for them. Then, it just encourages you to keep doing them.

In high school I always procrastinated on my projects/homework/studying for tests. 9 times out of 10 this served me well. I would wait until about 6 pm the night before, work late, sometimes wake up early, then get a great grade. Procrastinating served me well.

The longer I'm married to Eric the more cheap frugal I get. I don't shop impulsively. I usually see something I like. Think about it. Go back and look at it. Look online and see if I can find it cheaper. And, if it's something I really want, I'll go buy it.

A couple months ago I saw this dress at Old Navy.



But, because I'm frugal I didn't want to spend $29.50 at Old Navy. Old Navy stuff is supposed to be, like, $5, right? So, I didn't buy it.

Then, a little over a week ago I saw a picture of someone wearing it. And, it looked even better on. (I didn't bother trying it on because I knew I wouldn't spend the money on it.) I regretted now buying it, but thought maybe I still could. I looked it up online and found that the grey/white one was completely out. The black one was only in a xxl. Darn!

I had once last chance to buy it in the store. When I went in there the medium was completely out. So, I decided to try on the small. The small fit perfect. It was on clearance for $12. (Cheaper than online! Score!) So, see, thinking about purchases for forever pays off. You get the clearance price. As long as it doesn't sell out...
