    you're taking care of my money from now on xD

    the last few months I've been pretty good with spending but I have been known to buy things for no reason.
    babe all we be spendin' money on is blunts and pizza.

    I spend way too much money on CDs and DVDs, but that's about it. I tend to really think things over before I buy stuff.

    I bought 12 cookies from Subway for £4, because it meant I saved £2. I then realised I could've got 15 delicious, PROPER cookies from Sainsbury's next door.

    Proof that sales work.

    Yeah I do that sometimes. I bought a puppy once and about a week later I suddenly realised that I didn't really want a puppy and I was quite happy with the gold fish I already had so I put the puppy into a plastic bag and threw it into my local water logged quarry.

    I almost bought Secret of Mana for SNES last night off of eBay...From the first guy I saw selling it. Which happened to be about $120 when someone else was selling it with the strategy guide for $42. I have yet to buy it, but it is kind of impulsey...I have it for emulator already =\

    Clothes. Tops, shirts and t-shirts in particular. I have so many tops in comparison to trousers and skirts, but I can't stop buying them. I'm like 'ooooh that's nice~' and I can't resist.

    I'm not so bad now, I spent a lot of money on clothes when I had a full-time job. I avoid going shopping now unless I actually need to buy something because I don't want to waste money, plus it's winter and walking around in the cold all day isn't very appealing.

    They suck. Sainsbury's All Butter ones are better. 15 delicious circles of sexiness for only £1.09.

    I am an impulse buyer. "Oh look, a game I never heard of, BUT ITS ON SALE!" Hence how I went from 52ish PS2 games to over 80 in 2 weeks. And how I now have a 360 and 6 games. And I virtually doubled my DS collection too. To the tune of almost $2,000 in about 5 months. Then there's my booze buying habbits; "Duuuude, that bottle os orange and has flames on it!" "That bottles has an awesome shape!" "whoooa, that has a rope around the neck." Blasted flashy bottles forcing me to buy them.

    If I made one that was glittery and ripply and tasted like kiwi strawberry when (if?) you lick it, would you buy it?

    You just described my penis.

    Nah. I plan my purchases for the most part, and I have a spreadsheet that shows me how much spendable money I have for the remainder of any given month. I update it every 1-2 days thanks to internet banking.

    Takes about a minute per day, if that. Easy.

    If you're talking about the booze itself, yes, if you're talking about the bottle, yes, because I tend to lick bottles to gather up and drops that have spilled down the neck.
