Enjoy Shopping Again!
Last night and this afternoon, I had an absolute blast shopping.
Yesterday, I whipped through Bed, Bath & Beyond, Linens N’ Things, IKEA and Target. End result? $200 spent, my room revived and not one ounce of guilt. Why, you ask?
Since I started thinking about moving out, I set up a new envelope in my budget: home decorating. I haven’t moved anywhere, so the money’s accumulating, and investing in bedroom stuff seemed a good way to begin.
Purchased: red fitted sheet, red pillowcases, two Euro-sized pillows, two Euro-sized pillow shams, two red shiny pillows, two lamps, a duvet cover.
Next on the agenda: wall art, a mirror…
I know I said I feared overspending, but when I’m using allocated funds, funds I’ve already set aside, it’s A-OK. I love budgets, and I love shopping!
