Days 8 & 9

I could have actually blogged here last night, but I was suddenly having a moral dilemma. The other bloggers had fallen off, and Leah's recent entry made me start to think, and I began to feel like I was being a selfish & shallow person by spending so much time thinking about spending imaginary money. Plus life had gotten busy this week so I thought maybe I'd just as soon drop off the blog.
I'm over it. This is simply a fun experiment, and since I was enjoying my pretend shopping, I'm back.
And I'm going to The Golden Door Spa in California. With airfare, my total spending is $7910. Plus I know I will want to purchase some of their body care products so let's budget out another $500 for that.
I contemplated bringing a guest, but right now I really need some "me" time and frankly a trip like this I'd rather be left to my own devices.
Thanks to Cartier for putting your new fragrance in my magazine, because now I want the perfume & shower gel for a total of $210.
From that same magazine comes this very sweet rocking chair, which I would prefer to have in Walnut/Skydive. Yes, it is from a children's furniture site & yes, it is meant for new moms, but I like it just for me. Anyway, I'll keep it around if I ever do end up having babies. With shipping and handling that will cost me about $1560.
It's a bit weird, but for $900 Mandy Aftel will conduct a personal consultation with you and mix a fragrance up accordingly. I thought this was kinda cool & would be worth at least trying.
I'll send away for this rug from Macy's, and with shipping & handling I'm going to guesstimate the cost around $700.
Thinking about the home, I can't believe I'd held off this long from buying a 10 piece set of Calphalon cookware. Hm, suggested retail is $579. I think I'll send away and round up to $700.
I've got about $500 left from today but I'm getting really tired so unfortunately I'm going to have to pop it into a deposit for tomorrow, when I get to spend $10,000 as well...
