It's over now.
Cyber Monday sucked me in again. I’ve been sitting here for about an hour, clicking on shopping carts. They sure know how to reel ya in to their world of 'free shipping, one day only, last chance, don't miss out, web busters, deal ends tonight' marketing gimmicks. I know, it doesn't help that I know my credit card number by heart.
But not everything about cyber shopping is bad... The receipts get sent right to your email and cannot end up laying around for your husband to find for easy insta-budget tracking! I just create a “Christmas09″ e-mail folder and hide neatly store everything away. Viola!
Oh, and I am really good at finding online promotional codes. If it exists, I WILL find it. I will never, never, never order online until I've done a Google search to find any available coupon codes.
The only thing is, sometimes, my trigger finger goes wonky and extra items fall into the cart just for me.
I'm so addicted to online shopping! It's basically painless. :)
ReplyDeleteI have the same problem. I've been online all day.
ReplyDeleteYou sound like me with the coupon codes! See, being in Canada limits the amount that I can online shop. You know, no shipping to Canada etc. But still... I used to have a HUGE problem so I totally feel your pain ;)
ReplyDeleteYou are too funny :-) I'm the same way. Yesterday I went shopping with Chris and our budget went haywire!
ReplyDeleteGood for you! (I totally have the Christmas folder in the email too!) Where did you "go" shopping?
ReplyDeletehaha! I do the SAME thing...I never complete an online purchase unless I have googled "coupon codes" for that particular store. It's simple, and an easy way to save money! :)
ReplyDeletehaha i did a little damage today christmas shopping! but i love it!
ReplyDeletehaha I love the wonky finger! I did a lil cyber Monday shopping myself! And I'm with you, RetailMeNot.com is my best friend when online shopping!
ReplyDeleteI loooove online shopping too! I think its so fun to find deals!
ReplyDeleteI had a hard time resisting all the good deals!!
ReplyDeleteGood idea about the email folder & keeping things "out of sight".
ReplyDeleteAnother confession...I was shopping at work! GASP!!! However, I did get some good deals for Hubby!
ReplyDeletewww.retailmenot.com
ReplyDeleteI don't shop without checking that site for discounts :) I love it there!
do you use brads deals? or ebates? they are my go-to for the best deals and coupons.
ReplyDeleteI've never ordered anything online..I'm wayy behind!
ReplyDeletehaha! I am totally into the cyber monday thing... waaaay better than sitting out in the freezing cold at 4 in the morning to get 5 dollars off a toaster! :) I didn't take advantage though :(
