That's all I spent at the flea market today. Dissapointing really. I was the only one who even bought anything.
I got these lovely printed dinner napkins for the guest bath for $2,
and this metal 'S' (I already had the frame) for 25¢.
But it was still totally fun, and I love looking at all of that stuff. And there was some really cool stuff.
But, seriously, things have gotten kinda expensive. And why they cannot prevent their main ladies room from functioning improperly I'll never figure out.
I have to say the only thing that was an improvement over last year, was that I can now tell myself no. Which has always been a problem for me. Most people just buy what they like. But see, I like EVERYTHING, so I've had to learn how to say NO. Yes, that (insert interesting objet d'art here) is great, but what am I going to do with it? Where will it go? I was much easier this time on the 'storage unit' and the ole' bank account.
Although I hate when you start looking at stuff in the morning, you get that "omigod I really want that but I don't want to spend all my money yet" feeling. I kept putting down $9 and $10 items that I really would have liked to have taken home, but didn't buy 'cause I wanted to save my dough "just in case I see something better". So I ended up going to the ATM and taking out another $20 just to ease my mind a little bit and take the pressure off. Not that I would have spent it, but I felt better just knowing that it was there.
I'm totally going back next month. The last EXTRAVAGANZA (I so love that word) till next November.
