    Which ones did you get? I've been wanting a monokini but I've been afraid to take the plunge.

  • Hmm. I have been stocking up on hair and nail groupons lately.

    I also bought new Reebok Zigs for the gym (although I had a 40% off coupon, hows that for budget friendly?)

    We ate out 3 days in a row over the weekend and it was DELICIOUS.

    It is likely that I will be spending several grand on surgery for Rocksie in the next few months.

  • We just bought gym memberships last week. The only reason we did is that it's only $20 per month for both of us. I could not spend $60+ per month on a family membership at the YMCA or other gyms, so we picked this place and we love it.

  • Oh yea we bought gym memberships last week too. Andy's is $20 a month and mines $30 because I got unlimited tanning.

  • Those are super cute. You will look great!

    I want something that doesnt have a keyhole so it hides my whole abdominal scar.

  • I initially ordered 5. 4 monokinis- every style they had, and 1 one piece and I returned 3. My torso is really long so some of them were too short. Or the middle piece came in too small on me. I need them to cover my stretch marks

  • On my recent purchases list:

    An insanely expensive bottle of limoncello for my parents for Easter.

    2 hilarious dresses I'd never wear around anyone I actually know for Vegas

    SPF 50 Super Goop wipes, a new Clarisonic brush head, Lip Venom for my mom, nail stickers for friend and sister, mini manicure kit for friend.

    Oh, and 5 pairs of VS yoga panties- but IDK if those are splurges I was just tired of getting wedgies in gym clothes.  Plus I had a $10 off cert, so at $3ish a pair, I'm willing to splurge.

  • An entire new living room set, new kitchen floor and dishwasher, a new iPhone since my couch destroyed mine, a landscaper to fix my mess of a front yard, two vacations, and a ton of new clothes.

    This was all done within the last 2 months.  Holy crap!

  • I don't even want to think about how much money we spent in New Orleans.

    I've bought 3 pairs of sandals in the last week.

  • I went to Target on Saturday to buy moisturizer and came out with $150 worth of stuff

    image

    I also need a new swimsuit since my bikinis are WAY out of the question. I look like I've been mauled by a tiger.

  • I spent about $20 putting together Newt's Easter basket. Little plush Muno, two sets of sesame street flash cards (colors/shapes and ABCs), a book, a bubble gun, a box of goldfish crackers, a baggie of Amy's graham cracker bunnies, all in a tin basket that she can totally reuse for other things.

    I also bought her an adorable pair of bermuda shorts from Target. (Michelle, that cartoon is so true...so so true).

    Last week, as a treat to myself after my disappointing cancel, I got myself a pretty new VS bra. Its the first bra(non-maternity) I've bought myself in like 2years. Bonus, I had a $50 gift card, so it actually only cost me about $3.

    Little plush Muno,

     

    MUNO! He's tall and friendly.

     

  • Please add 2 new suits to my order.

    Please post a pic. (I can't access VS at work.)  These intrigue me.  I just wear regular hipster underwear all the time so I rarely get wedgies, but I'm always game for new pairs that promise not to ride up.

    Sidenote: How the hell can women work out in thongs? I can't stand thongs, I constantly feel like something's flossing my a$$.

  • Tonia....I LOVE that black monokini! 

    In the past week or so:

    Food processor

    Toaster

    Picture frames

    2 lamps (but one was only $6!)

    1 lamp shade

    And several gifts for friends (but that doesn't really count) 

  • In just ONE DAY, we purchased:

    2012 Nissan Altima

    Entire living room set with an extra night stand

    New dining room table with 2 extra chairs 

    Ouch. Most expensive day ever. 

  • Red Lobster on Sunday.  It was totes worth the $70 bill, soooo delicious!  Plus it was the first time we ordered Alex his own plate.  It was fun.

    They're microfiber, like yoga pants, with a tiny strip of stuff like strapless bras have to hold them in place.

    Oh... right... this reminds me of the dinner we had last Sunday with our friends.  It was Restaurant Week, so the plates were prix fixe... yeah, but when you start veering off that course, buying drinks and desserts and just having a good time, that bill quickly adds up to $200 -_-  But hey, this was the two of us and we enjoyed ourselves, and we never really got to celebrate Chris' bonus last month, so have at!

  • Weekend in Estes Park Groupon

    I've bought some new springs clothes - v neck tees, etc.  nothing too extravagant, just from Kohls.  I need to replace some camis from Express too.

    We did do happy hour last week, but it was just too nice not to!
