I do that too. Look at all these fabbers buying wonderful items on sale. I convince myself that I have wardrobe holes for every item on sale. Go on the website, browse through it. then I stop and leave the computer for a few hours. In that time, I think about these items with sales goggles off and most of the time, the excitement passes by, I come back to my senses and decide I don't really need to buy these. I am at that stage of my wardrobe building where I have a lot of holes. So I only buy if it is a true need. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/no-buy-june#post-1289470 Fri, 27 Jun 2014 17:48:33 +0000 Zibbets 1289470@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>WooHoo! WTG, Sterling!</p> <p>I was in TJMaxx to buy a tablecloth yesterday and caught myself fondling some cute shorts and a skirt.

There are some tempting deep sales right now with winter things greatly discounted, but the idea of even trying them on in the summer heat puts one off. Will I love it in November? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/no-buy-june#post-1289217 Fri, 27 Jun 2014 13:00:21 +0000 Mo 1289217@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nerves of steel! &nbsp;I struggle with this. &nbsp;I have a flannel shirt in mind for my fall list. &nbsp;They have put it on 30% off sale twice now. &nbsp;I can't possibly wear it for at least another 2 or 3 months, maybe longer. &nbsp;But every time I see it on sale I twitch a little. &nbsp;Sigh. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/no-buy-june#post-1289215 Fri, 27 Jun 2014 12:57:58 +0000 Alassë 1289215@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good for you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/no-buy-june#post-1289201 Fri, 27 Jun 2014 12:23:45 +0000 Joyce B 1289201@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good job! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/no-buy-june#post-1289200 Fri, 27 Jun 2014 12:19:03 +0000 pastrygirl 1289200@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great job, Sterling!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/no-buy-june#post-1289196 Fri, 27 Jun 2014 12:15:56 +0000 Janet 1289196@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sterling, you've pinpointed the danger of YLF for me. I love this community and all I learn and see here, and the great thing is that I get lots of ideas. And the dangerous thing is that I get lots of ideas. It's so easy to get a case of the I Wantses when you're seeing so many people's fab hauls. Good for you for knowing your limits and your weaknesses and taking a step back when you need to! </p> <p>I was so committed to JSNJ until I realized my handbag situation was not entirely happy. The good thing is I promptly put six handbags on eBay (2 have sold already). So that is helping fund the possible two new bags I have on the way. But in the process of looking at handbagss, I've gotten sidetracked into some clothing shopping. I got some great bargains, and I'm culling some old things as a result, but it's a slippery slope, isn't it? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/no-buy-june#post-1289189 Fri, 27 Jun 2014 12:11:03 +0000 Inge 1289189@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Brilliant job, Sterling!-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/no-buy-june#post-1289187 Fri, 27 Jun 2014 12:07:44 +0000 Anonymous 1289187@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have been reading everyone's posts regarding their J Crew purchases. &nbsp;I then noticed the link to J Crew on YLF and that today was the last day to take advantage of the sale. &nbsp;</p> <p>With only days left in the month of June, I went to J Crew and filled my shopping cart to the brim. &nbsp;I was seriously going to buy too. &nbsp;Then I came to my senses. &nbsp;There will still be clothes to buy in July and the whole rest of the year. &nbsp;I can hold off five more days. &nbsp;Took a deep breath and will be shutting the computer for the rest of the day. &nbsp; </p>
