Oh, get stuffed you self-important wench

So this is what this bitch tells me (please take note that I did not ask for unwanted advice, I merely invited other shoppers to view my page on the off-chance that they may like it, bearing in mind that it is my"online diary").

"I have to say that your blog has no real unity (fonts, colours, etc.) to it, nor does it offer any fellow shopaholic any shopping tips, links, etc. that I saw...it all just seems to be about YOU, with no thought of your READERS and what you can offer them for the time they spend on your blog???


Possibly re-consider your goals for this blog and what you hope to achieve/offer the public IF you intend for it to be a publicly known site...sorry for the critique but I call'em as I see'em...you can ignore my thoughts if you wish, of course."
 
So I have a message for you - SCREW YOU.  Oh wait, I have a "shopping tip" for her - select item, proceed to cash desk, remove wallet from handbag and extract either cash or card.  Stupid woman.  Point of interest:  the woman responding to this is into mayhem and murder according to her sad and sorry-looking blog.  Poor thing.  No wonder she can't relate.  Interesting that she would've visited my blog at all.  Probably just to offer unappreciated and unwelcome "advice" to compensate for something that's missing in her life.  Oh well, we can't all be like me.  More's the pity.
 
I quite enjoy criticism...when I ask for it and by someone who's qualified to give it.  Then, and only then.
 
P.S. Yesterday was a wonderful shopping day - go to the Trenery and Country Roads sale at Woolies, you'll LOVE it!!  Oh, except you, whoever you are.  Perhaps you'd enjoy a halloween store - sorry, I can't help you there :(

Cosmetics

Anyone would think that I have a ridiculously huge salary from the way I spend.  I don't.  Well, to some I might, to me I DO NOT and to many others, I most certainly don't.  If you want bargains, you have to shop ALL THE TIME.  How will you know where the bargains are or what the usual prices are if you didn't see the items at the original prices?  Come now, that just makes sense.

So I went to the Clicks cosmetics sale and took full advantage.  No, I will NOT tell you what I bought.  So the next time you see me and you think I look nice, just know that it's thanks to this very shopping spree.

And just so by the way, my amazing hubby bought me the most divine Polo handbag for Christmas (a little late, yes I know, but what do you buy a girl who shops non-stop and has already bought everything she wants...).  LUUUUUUUURRRRRRRRRRRVE it!!!!!!!  Lucky me :) :) :) :) :)

Enjoy your shopping.  Once again, the sales are everywhere - take advantage NOW!!

P.S.  I'll let you know when Elizabeth Arden and Estee Lauder have their special offers, I'm anxiously waiting for them.  www.elizabetharden.co.za and www.esteelauder.co.za - have a look!  2 best friends that a girl cannot possibly go without.  Ladies please, listen to good advice.  It's free.  My advice, that is.  The products are not, but they are well worth the money.

By the way, don't go to Jenna Clifford - disappointing right now.  I feel a little let down.  Her stores were recently my favourite places to shop, now I feel...oh, I don't know, just like my needs and expectations were misunderstood.  She can't possibly have run out of ideas.  Hopefully she comes back soon.

House hunt almost officially over

This year's (actually forever's) most expensive buy - our new house - is almost in the bag!

Our house is sold (thank you God for looking down and acting with speed) and our offer has been accepted on the beautiful house with pool and jacuzzi and split levels in Faerie Glen.  Now all that needs to happen is: the buyer's bond needs to be approved (no foreseeable - spelling? - issues there) and then my bond has to be approved - no issues foreseen there either.  YAY!!  IDFL - In Debt For Life!!!

Shop til you drop!!

2 epilate or not?

After much thought and careful consideration i bought myself an epilator. I recommend it highy! Very impressed indeed! I can now save on razors & waxing! Woo hoo! And the pain is at least self-inflicted, so how can i complain?!
