With only one shift left at Buckle, and one more shot to use my 40% discount, I have a choice to make: To charge or not to charge? Without any money, that is the question! (Incredibly, it's been about two years since I've used my credit cards! Is this discipline due for reward?)
I'm torn. Oddly enough, I am. I would imagine many of you see this as an easy answer: Fore go the clothing, right? I'm already laden with debt. But debt it so much easier to bare when you look good working it off! I don't really feel wrong to take advantage of my temporary purchasing power at Buckle at the expense of some debt. But I'm not really hurting for clothes right now... Ooooh but I love having new clothes!
A favorite movie of mine (no wonder, why) is Confessions of a Shopaholic:
In my defense, I bought almost nothing the whole two years I was in school and lately I've been playing the Replenish-My-Wardrobe game. Believe it or not, acquiring a new wardrobe was one of my goals for my time here in Utah. But then I have to remind myself cute things available for purchase today doesn't mean cute things won't be available for purchase tomorrow. "The pain of sacrifice lasts only one moment. It is the fear of the pain of sacrifice that makes you hesitate to do it."
Hey! Guess what was featured on www.lds.org today. Done guessing? This:
I have about $1,000.00 of merchandise on hold. Don't judge me. =)
...Ooookay! I know already I'm not going to get it all. *Sigh* What is reasonable?
