Lisa S (kasey_k_fan) I almost caved yesterday at the grocery store, but my son pulled me away. He said I've been good for 3 months, don't mess it up now. I just know the time is coming when I won't be able to hold back. LOL

Afsana (afsanaz) been a full day though recieved a book ordered pre last shopping trip


message 666: by Kristi (new)

Kristi (kristicasey) I'm almost to a week! Of course, I have to go shopping today, so...telling myself to be strong and resist. My goal is to hold out until the 21st. That's 10 days total, which would be a new record for me, I think.

Oh, and if someone gives you the book for free does that count? I mean, do you have to consider it as a buy?


message 667: by Afsana (new)

Afsana (afsanaz) just after my last post I bought matched by allie condie on internet and bid for 2 books on ebay...ohhh not doing so well

Nope, if it's a gift or bought with a gift card you are good. Only books you pay actual money for you have to count.


message 669: by Lisa S (new)

Lisa S (kasey_k_fan) I'm still going strong at 3 months and almost 2 weeks.

message 671: by Kristi (new)

Kristi (kristicasey) Lisa: Thank you! At least that's something. Lol.

Of course it didn't do me any good, bc I bought a book yesterday. Oy!


message 672: by Lisa S (new)

Lisa S (kasey_k_fan) Thanks Debi, but it's getting hard now.


message 673: by Kristi (new)

Kristi (kristicasey) Lisa, hang in there! You're an inspiration to us!!!

Not that it's working, bc I picked up another book yesterday (again)! *Rolling eyes*

Almost 4 months is a lot to let go of though. Hang tough!

Tanya | 44 comments I'm back to an hour. Had to get the third in the series. City of Glass (The Mortal Instruments, #3) by Cassandra Clare City of Glass *sigh*


message 675: by Kristi (new)

Kristi (kristicasey) I'm back up to 2 days, but I'll be purchasing a book before the end of the week, so I don't why I'm bothering to count.

And that sounded soooo negative, which it shouldn't because I'm super excited for Smokin' Seventeen to come out.

message 680: by Cammie (new)

Cammie a little more than an hour


message 681: by Lisa S (new)

Lisa S (kasey_k_fan) Well, I made it 3 months and 3 weeks and then I finally caved today. I;m hanging my head in shame. But in my defense, I told my husband I didn't want to buy any new books because I've made it almost 4 months and what does he do? He told me to get in the car he wanted to take me somewhere, that somewhere was B&N. Since I was there, and he gave me $46 dollars to spend on myself I couldn't hold back.

Seems I was getting on his nerves talking about books I saw that I wanted. LOL

Debi (debjm51) | 445 comments @ Lisa on that is to funny..I am always talking about books to my hubby to and when we go shopping I show him the books I want..hoping one day he will remember and surprise me..don't know if I should let the hope go or not..LOL!! Okay now since hubby paid for the books does that mean you fell or they were gifts???

You go Ladies!!

message 695: by Lisa S (new)

Lisa S (kasey_k_fan) No, it counts because he kept $40 for him to spend on what he wanted and I had $40 to spend on what I wanted. But he did take me there without me knowing where we were going.
