{Just-in-case Shopper}

I think I suffer from what I call the just-in-case syndrom whenever I buy something I really like at a scrap shop. Lovely prima flowers. I went berserk buying them. I bought 2 of each I picked out, just in case I use it once and run out of it.

Honestly, from all the just-in-case purchase, I've always had excess left. But at the point of purchase, nothing makes sense except, just in case.

I totally blew my budget for the next 3 months with yesterday's scrap purchase @ Laines. You see... when I start picking out stuff, I don't calculate. I just take, put, take, put, take, put and head to the cashier. The moment of truth always hits me when I see the cash register ringing away... then I'd think to myself, "Oops, I forgot to check the price."

I meant to just pop in to buy one thing - the French Memo Board.

But I ended up with tons of other irrelevant items. And when I saw the prima flowers... i became a ridiculous just-in-case shopper.

My new year scrap resolution was not to purchase things I like but only purchase what I need and use up all the stuff I have at home. I was going well at it, until...

Why on earth would I need so many of these? I don't even use them in my LO!!

They just look... ... P-R-E-T-T-Y

Self-control. Discipline. Wake up!!

P.S. I just saw from The Scrapbook Carton facebook post that they will be bringing some really beautiful flowers soon. Add them in facebook and check it out!
