Any tips. We recently moved, and when we had the money, we bought new furniture, sheets, and decor for our new home. Christmas came, and I spent more money on gifts, etc. Now, I am still spending. I feel like I “need” a new purse, new pajamas, new cologne – all the things I didn’t get at Christmas I think. I am trying to make our life perfect, and have all the things we need, or deserve. At least that is my mentality. How do I stop this cycle? I have had issues in the past (a long time ago) with credit, and learned my lesson. I am paying for all of this with cash, but we need to start saving!!! We both need a retirement plan! I spend, and then feel guilty and nervous about money (due to my past experience), but keep doing it once the feeling passes. I need advice before the bank account dwindles more! Any tips would be good.

OK. After watch my Christmas gift under the tree for several days I just jump there and took out a little (very little) piece of gift wrap in one corner, just to see what color the box was. Well, the box is black in the sides and white with a few red stripes above… It is big, like 22 x 14 and is very heavy! I don’t have any idea of what it can be since I have like two months trying that my husband understand that all that I want is a purse… but of course it is not a purse and honestly I am not expecting a purse because my husband always give me something that I don’t ask… To be honest something inside me was wishing that it be a plain box just for imagine my purse inside but now that I know is a white box with black and red stripes…
I know is a little silly but I just want to play a little and maybe feel I’m a little girl again… any suggestions about what can be??? Remember, 22×14, black in the sides and white in the back and front with a few red stripes… Lol
Mitzy: He always do something like that (put the gift in another box) but I am the one that keep boxes in this house and I never saw a box like that one. For that I was thinking it maybe was a normal box (like the ones you receive in the mail) with something heavy inside + my puuurse…. but now I feel like… ooookkk
Another thing is that my husband hate shopping because of the crowded in holidays one day I woke up and he don’t was here. Suddenly he was in the house with bags from Target… and the next day I saw the box there…
My purse is not from Target.
My husband is in vacations, he is always in home so I know he don’t went any place different than Target…
I feel guilty because is s many people without gifts in the world but man…. honestly I feel a little sad now… Haha
Jesse: It is heavy. I can’t shake it.
I was thinking about electronics but I don’t need any thing like that.
Well, my husband gave me in Chritsmas 2 years ago …. a printer!!!!!!
After that everything is possible.
Update!!!
I was looking very carefully in the “little hole” that I made and I saw something like “133 pieces” so I went to Target.com and I found that this http://www.target.com/Black-Decker-133-pc-Home-Project/dp/B000V4T0N8/sr=1-1/qid=1198303334/ref=sr_1_1/602-9050938-6699054?ie=UTF8&index=target&rh=k%3A133&page=1 have 133 pieces!!!
My husband will give me this? I am sure. Just see: the box is black, white with red stripes, super heavy… if is not this I will change my name! Maybe I should buy some makeup for him? I think is a joke.
Seriously… I want to cry.
