Shopping :: Spending the Giftcard

I pondered long and hard about what in the world I was going to spend my millions on. I was lucky enough to win a $100 gift card that was good for a bunch of malls in my area.

I hummed, I hawwed, and finally came to a decision. I wanted this gift card to last as long as it could and go as far as it could. As much as $100 can. I had narrowed it down to a list of about 7 things. 7 things that cost more than $100 all together, but things that I know that I want [and still do, but I’m really resisting].

Final cut, a LuLuLemon yoga mat. This really tells you how much I’m taking my yoga practise seriously. Because otherwise, spending $68 on a mat is pretty extravagent. I bit the bullet, and I love it. Best purchase ever, and it totally kicks my $10 mat’s butt. And now my back doesn’t get sore from doing rocknrolls. Always a plus in my eyes!

And then I headed to Yorkdale, on a Saturday, and it was crazy busy. Yorkdale is probably the only mall out there that makes me always feel underdressed. Even though I put makeup on this time. And wore a cute outfit. I went hunting for shoes, I went hunting for pants, and I went hunting for cups. Anthropologie was the place that I was going to spend the rest of my gift card. On super adorable mugs. Like I don’t have enough of them already, right? These ones were on sale [even better] and they were just to cute to pass up.

Anthropologie makes me spend so much of my money. But at least this time it was “free”! I’m so grateful to have won one of these, even if it took me 2 months to post this up!
