It's day 9 and I didn't buy anything on day 8.  :facepalm:
I started watching some television last night, fell asleep, and didn't wake up until 1:04 a.m. on day 9.
My first thought was nooooooooooo!  Then my next thought was, okay, that's a little bit of a relief (financially and emotionally).

So, my record was 7 days.  I did find a few I really like.  I was only able to mark off one from my want to buy list, a SwissCard Nailcare.

My favorite purchase was this one:

So what does a 7 day shopping spree cost?  I just totaled it up.  $413.88    :o    :ahhh  :oops:
At that rate, I was heading towards a monthly total of (if the trend continued): $1,655.52
So yeah, falling asleep last night without going back online wasn't such a bad thing.

:hatsoff: It was fun, yet a bit worrisome when I couldn't find anything.  A couple of times, they were early evening purchases.  Unlike today, I've already bought something before noon.
Pic coming.
