9/21/2024 | Spicy BBQ Chicken Wrap and Strawberry Banana Smoothie

COST: $29.30

I typically only consider solo-meals my weekly treat but I spent so much money today I'm counting this. The cost was expensive because i bought a second wrap for my boyfriend. they should change the name of the wrao to "An Essence of Spicy BBQ Chicken Wrap" because there was barely any BBQ or spice in there... this is coming from someone who cant handle their spice. i still liked it a lot though. the dressing for the salad was good, but the side salad itself was mostly cucumber and tomato... i hate cucumber and tomato )): . the smoothie tasted soo good! i almost finished it before my meal came in.

9/21/2024 | Cheppoly Haul: Three sticker sheets (Dungeon meshi and OC), Wanderer keychain

COST: $35

3/3 of comic-con haul

another artist i recognized from etsy (i need help)!! I wanted SOME dungeon meshi merch and i was glad to get some here. im still on the lookout for a dungeon meshi poster though... the wanderer keychain is so funny, my favorite merch of him is always when he is drawn in a silly way. i like this person's art style and merch designs so much i would actually buy some ofthese again. the buy two get one free sticker deal was nice, thats how i got the dog sticker sheet (which i found funny cause its the artist's dog).

9/21/2024 | Dressy Deer Haul: Two Hamtaro sticker sheets, Penelope keychain, Hamtaro microfiber cloth, Cat pin

COST: $52

2/3 of comic-con haul

i wishhhh i bought more from them. i passed by their booth and my chronically online shopper ass recognized them from etsy. The microfiber cloth cleaned my glasses well. the printing on the pin and keychain is great. the only thing about the stickers is that they dont quite fit in my reusable sticker book. some of them fell off just with a turn fo a page. i think thats on me though. Since these are all just "wants" i wouldn't buy them again.

9/21/2024 | Wanderer Omamori, Kobeni Poster and Pochita Sticker

COST: $36.35

1/3 of comic-con haul

I went crazy with spending stuff today loll, but i did actually budget like $260 for this event and somehow didnt hit it. I'm planning on making a Wanderer merch collection and i think the omamori is perfect.. i wish i got the scaramouche version too. what confused me about the seller is that they charged me for tax even though i live in a tax free state?? wym by taxes... i still paid it tho get ur bag!! the kobeni poster had great paper quality. ive been looking for more posters and it was the only one in the whole con that really caught my eye! the pochita sticker felt durable and the sparkles are so pretty. Since these are "wants" I wouldnt buy most of these again.

Artists: kirseel (Kobeni), mightysen (pochita), maiohmai (Wanderer)

Would buy again? Yes to omamori, no to rest.

9/19/2024 | Sterling Silver Necklace and Earrings

COST: $78

Some of my methods to avoid buying things include avoiding going out and making sure i leave my wallet at home. so the vendors caught my ass when they chose to set up in my job's lobby and accept venmo. a complete impulse buy. the earrings are for my sister as a Christmas gift so i guess that's a little justifiable. Though the necklace was just for me.

i can't comment on the earrings but the necklace fits around my neck in the way i've always wanted one to. the pendant is attached securely to two ends of the chain so i dont need to worry about it swinging around behind my head. its also adjustable, but in the way where i dont need to always put it on the smallest setting. i will be wearing this necklace everyday. since this was on impulse buy i wouldnt get it again though...

9/16/2024 | Tiger Milk Boba

COST: $10.51

My weekly treat. I got a large size to share with my boyfriend. I like the flavor but it’s just too sweet. I think my tastebuds are changing because I used to love overly sweet stuff like this…. Expecting sweet treat but got a cruel reminder of my aging self.

9/14/2024 | Calpak Insulated Lunchbag

COST: $51.15

I wanted to get a more spacious and durable lunch bag because my last one could barely fit my food and it was lined with material that stained too easy. I am also trying to get myself to pack food for when I head to my boyfriends house so I won’t be tempted to eat out as much. His family, I shit you not, only eats dinner. They are fully capable of putting two other meals in but simply choose not too!! I’ll be like, “honey I’m hungry I haven’t eaten in hours” and he’ll give me a two pack of belvita crackers.

Anyways about the bag, it’s a great balance between bulky and small. The drawstring function adjusts the bag’s size to what I’m packing in there and the inside has solid insulation. There are pockets to the side that I think will hold my waterbottle, but the uneven weight distribution caused by putting it in makes it awkward to hold sometimes. Quality matches what I paid I feel.

9/7/2024 | Apple Crisp Cream Chai Latte

COST: $7.24

My weekly treat. Im gonna try to only eat out weekly (minus social events) to save money. Tastes like how a an autumn themed yankee candle smells. In a bad way. This will be my last Starbucks purchase ever, tired of getting yummy sounding drinks and tasting coochie. Oh, and $7.24 for a SMALL drink?? I did tip a $1 so this one’s on me but it’s still shit. I only finished it because I did not want my money to go to waste.

9/6/2024 | Urban Outfitters Haul

COST: $308.99

Most embarrassing purchase of 2024 because my ass used Klarna after pay for the first time for this. For the record, I did have the funds to buy it but I didn’t want to go over my August budget so I decided to spread the payments out into September/October. Don’t matter though DO NAWT BE LIKE ME. I bought this because of a labor day sale and I wanted comfy autumn clothes.

Clothes fit fine, but for their price I don’t think the quality was really up to par, it felt cheap and similar to what my sister buys from Shein.
