Ok, I am officially joining the ban today too. I hereby promise to limit my shopping spending to $100/month. Anything above that amount must come from profits made from ebaying or consigning things I don't want anymore (and have been too lazy to get rid of!).
All of my shopping has been due to the dog's activities. I just took the dog to the vet for shots and a check up. I had to buy new moisturizer, foundation and a brush, because she chewed then up. With all of the rain she is gettilng a little stir crazy. A whole bag of chew toys from petsmart, hopefully to prevent future destruction.
