    I've been wanting a cute, fitted leather jacket for YEARS. I was so tempted when I found some on mega sale, but they were still $200+ and I couldn't justify it with the other, more practical things I was buying. Like the godfather of all winter coats. 

    Some other staples I'm lacking that would be nice is a trench coat and a maxi dress or skirt. Well I guess I sort of have a maxi skirt. 
    This! Such a great addition to any spring wardrobe.

    I need struts and tires, too.  I just can't bring myself to spend precious leftover Christmas money on something so practical!


    I normally wouldn't either, but I'm worried about flooding once this snow starts to melt. My office is like 2 blocks from Willowbrook, and it always floods here when it rains. I'm nervous about getting stranded or hydroplaning in a puddle on my drive home! As much as I want to spend the money frivilously, I also don't want to get into an accident.

    @cookie pusher - We're so close! I work in the middle of Wayne, and hate the flooding that happens with a white winter and rainy spring. I'll think good thoughts for your work travels when we start to see the rain. :(

    I want a hot tub on my patio!  A new dress would be nice, but until the designers understand that old ladies don't wear short skirts, I'm out of luck on that one.  I will just have to settle for the hot tub.  (Sigh!)

    A hot tub... sounds like a tough decision! ;)

    My office is near the airport, and that area is such a mess when it rains even just a little. Passaic Avenue turns into a lake, and people forget how to drive! During Hurricane Irene, there was several feet of water in the street - a massive tree stump actually floated into our parking lot and had to be removed with a giant truck.

    I would probably buy a new pair of shoes or the Ninja blender. I always find a reason to buy new shoes. Lol I already have a blender but after reading the reviews for the Ninja and finding it for a great price I think I'm going to buy it this week.

    I've been stocking up on spring/summer dresses from Zulily that should fit my hopefully expanding waistline. One is a cute polka dot number that will help me channel my inner Kate Middleton.

    I also want a new handbag. I've been scouring the interwebs for a structured mediumish satchel with handles long enough to go over my shoulders in a nice all season medium brown. I just don't want to have to sell DD to the circus to make that happen.

    Our next door neighbors have a hot tub.  I foresee us bribing them with DH's cooking to get use of said hot tub.






    What differentiates an average host and a great host is anticipating unexpressed needs and wants of their guests.  Just because the want/need is not expressed, doesn't mean it wouldn't be appreciated.

    This thread now has me wishing for a hot tub, except I live in an apartment.  If only they made portable ones we could plug in on our balcony...

    There were some cute satchels at the Coach Outlet (if you're on their email list, you can view/purchase them online). I've also had luck finding cute bags at TJMaxx/Marshalls.

    The dress is so pretty!! Love it!

    I also bit the bullet... and spent $428 on new tires. Because I got a flat on my way to work. Dammit, universe!
