March Moratorium
Mar. 4th, 2009 02:49 pmI won Darcy last night, so now my Italian Trix collection will be complete! Unfortunately, someone was actually bidding against me for her, so that jacked the price up a little. D:
It's like, don't I know everyone in the US who would buy these Italians? :D
But after doin' the sums, I realized I've spent close to $500 on all my eleven Italians. Then I kind of freaked out a little; I don't think I've ever spent that much on something like this before.
I'm tempted to say "Ah well," and go merrily on with life, but my bank account is giving me the evil eye, so after much thought, I decided to institute March Moratorium. The idea is to not spend any more money on books/toys/etc. for the rest of the month and give my account time to recover and replenish.
I've never tried an experiment like this before. I'm assuming it's going to be painful. But it will give me a little time to perhaps put together a spending plan for collectible purchases that will apply to future months.
