Books, hands down. I have way too many, and a ton I haven't read.

Eating out! I would eat out every meal if I could. Also, dress pants...I'm pretty snobby when it comes to those :lol2:

Buying books makes me feel guilty because we have a library, for heavens sake!! Yet still every week, I am at Barnes & Noble or Hastings. :blush:

I get very obsessed with one thing, sometimes- like when I was redecorating my computer room. It is light blue with black and white accents. I went crazy shopping for decorative items for this room. Then, boom, I was done with it. :nono:

I also have way too many clothes. Right now I am losing weight which is great except that I have to buy transition pants and skirts. Then they will go into one of the three closets where I keep clothes. :nono:

Eating out and quilt fabric. I cannot pass up the remnant bin. I had broken myself of it for awhile but then I started several quilts and boom! Habit re-established. :hide:

Magazines. I buy them ALL the time. Cosmo, Maxim, Star. It's insane. DH keeps telling to get subscriptions, but it takes the fun out of it. I used to get Today's Parent in the mail, then got bored with magazine. I apparently only like them when I pay full price :shuffle:

Lip balms/Chapsticks. I seriously have about 80 of them. And always buy new ones. I think I have yet to finish a whole one! They are in my car, my purse, the bag I use for the boys, coat pockets, EVERYWHERE.

OMG, I am awful with magazines. I buy fashion mags, wedding mags, cooking mags, soap opera digest, gardening mags, travel mags, decorating mags- you know it, I buy it! You would think I would just get subscriptions but nooooo, have to buy them at full price instead. :doh:

Eating out, hands down. If I could curb myself of that, we would save a ton of money and I would probably lose weight.

Yeah, that's just the top 3. I buy way more. Then get mad because I have them all over the house, because god forbid I throw one out!!!

I forgot the biggest one. My kids. They have way too much crap, but I keep buying more.

Skin care and make up. I don't ever tell my DH how much my moisturizer costs! He would die!

My hair cuts and color
Dress pants
Purses
My dog Oliver- he has to have the super fancy raw hides, snacks, toys and clothes! I totally spoil him!

Clothes !!

My husband says neither me or Hailey need MORE .. But if it makes it any better I sell stuff we have "outgrown" (one way or another) to help buy newer stuff on ebay.

I rarely buy either of us NEW clothes .. I buy stuff second hand on ebay since its just as good as the new stuff but cheaper ;)

I just have a thing for clothes.. :)

Going out to lunch. Especially now that I am home, I LOVE going to Panera, and getting a bowl of Broccoli Cheddar soup and hanging out for a while. It makes my day.

Computer stuff and home stuff. I want a nice place, not just a place to hold our stuff...I want to feel settled and at home in our first place.

Eating out, and lately, fast food.. even though I hate it
Coffee
Books about photography, art, design, etc.
DVDs- we don't exactly buy them, but it adds up still
Skin care products

Pizza and potato chips/dip. Can't study without something to nibble, which means more time spent walking it all off.
