linking up with my friend Heidi
i pulled the trigger. twice.
You may not know this about me, but I'm not really a big purchaser. I mean, hell yes, I LOVE to shop, but I am such a bargain shopper that I spend an inordinate amount of time researching large (or large-ish) purchases before I can commit. Chris and I are quite different in this area. (I like to shop, he likes to BUY). But today, I put on my big girl panties and went to the AT&T store and got me my very own iPhone. Like WITH a CONTRACT and everything. It's so pretty. I love it. I don't know why I hesitated so long. (Yes I do actually, it's because I'm cheap). But anyway, I was on such a roll that I came home and ordered a Kindle Fire. Something else I've wanted for a while. I even had $200 sitting in my amazon account just BEGGING to be spent. So, it was really the right thing to do. The ONLY thing to do.

Good for you! I'm the same as you. I always try to find the best deals and I'm quite frugal. I contemplated buying an iPhone for over a year before I actually got one. I'm glad I did, I love it! You will too!
ReplyDeleteOhhhhh! Congratulations! We've had our iPhones for awhile, and I LOVE mine. Love. And I've been wanting a Kindle for a long time. There's never any money left over to do anything fun with, and if tehre ever was . . . well, I'm much too practical to spend it. Maybe one day :)

ReplyDeleteThe only reason that I don't have an iphone is cost. I'm too cheap to pay for it. Dying for instagram though. Jealous. I was using my regular kindle this weekend when I started dreaming of the kindle fire. Jealous of that too. I have a birthday coming the summer -- maybe someone will be nice. :) Enjoy your new toys.
ReplyDeleteCongrats. I am taking the iPhone plunge on Friday. Love the photo!!
ReplyDeleteMiz Biz buying shiz. I love it.
ReplyDeleteI dream of owning a Kindle Fire, but alas, they have not released the here in Australia yet. I am soooo jealous.
ReplyDeleteI'm the other way. I love to buy and shop. My husband loves to save and always says we don't need. I grew up with "You want it. Get it! Never regret." Good for you for splurging on yourself. I have one question: How do you feel today about your buys???
ReplyDeleteCute picture!!!
Yay! Congrats! I am the same way when it comes to big purchases! I hate spending money!
ReplyDeleteI hate spending money too - but then when yo u get something you have been thinking about - wanting and knowing your will never regret - it feels amazing!
ReplyDeleteHappy trigger pulling!
Ooooooh, enjoy your new toys!! Spending money is great when it is something for yourself!
ReplyDeletei'm so proud of you mom! you're going to love your new devices!
ReplyDeleteWow! That was really 2 big shots for a day! May your new toys en(reach)ing your daily tasks...
ReplyDeleteYay new things! Headed to an iphone soooonnn... happy SITS day:) I think I'm early....
ReplyDeleteHappy SITS Day!
ReplyDeleteYou think like me... going happily along on one subject, but on wait, he's a picture that has nothing to do with anything, just 'cause I like it!
I'm the same way about big purchases!
Just popped in to wish you a happy SITS Day!
ReplyDeleteI just got my iPhone this summer after trying to cheap out for years. I.love.it. But I must admit, the monthly bills are painful!
Love my iPhone and your blog is beautiful!! Happy SITS day!
ReplyDeleteSoooooo envious!
ReplyDeleteI hate my cr@ppy phone.
Happy SITS day to you!!!
You are going to LOVE your iPhone and Kindle Fire! And I love your blog name; at first, I thought you "snapped" because you couldn't take "it" any more, and then I was delighted to learn that you snap a shutter, just like me! It's nice to meet you from SITS!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love your blog and sense of humor! Happy SITS day! Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteI stopped by to say enjoy your SITS day! I just bought a Kindle yesterday from Amazon, too! I didn't get the Kindle Fire, I got the $139 model. I've had 4 books published on Kindle, so I figured I should probably get one! lol
ReplyDeleteLook up EVA GALLANT in Kindle books and see if there's something there you might enjoy! (By the way, it's taken me a year to finally breakdown and buy a Kindle..I'm cheap, too!)
I'm definitely more like your husband, well, when it comes to shopping. :D
ReplyDeleteHappy SITS Day!
Congrats on your purchases!! I love my iPhone and just this week downloaded the Kindle app on my iPad so it is KINDA like I have both??? Happy SITS day - love your before and after photos of your master bath by the way! And the commentary :)
ReplyDeleteAnd how much do you love your Kindle Fire? I got one for Christmas this year and I'm absolutely obsessed with it. SO WANT an iPod. Hopefully I'll have some tax refund money to play around with :)
ReplyDeleteHope you have a great weekend!
I love your blog title! Visiting from SITS and I don't get wordless Wednesday either and when I participate I am rarely wordless.
ReplyDeleteI'm the same, have to put the research in before buying. Especially big purchases.
ReplyDeleteThe iPhone is definitely a good buy though. I feel in love instantly.
Unlike you, I'm dirt cheap. LOL. Refuse to have a cell phone because I simply think I don't need it and it's another expense I can do without. My son got me an IPOD so he can Facetime me when I'm home. Just because they want to know where I am all the time. Love your blog and I'm your newest follower.
ReplyDeleteTwo smart purchases in my opinion! I absolutely love my iPhone, and I love reading books on my kindle. It's such a neat little invention. I love that I can have 3 or 4 books with me at all times, ready to read. Love your blog, and I enjoyed reading your SITS featured blogger post.
