    I am Banning Myself from Online Shopping.....

    Help me... I have an addiction

    In the last couple months, I have place 5 BPS orders, order from Pflueger, Shakespeare, Walmart, Backcountry and a couple other sporting goods stores. But Hey, it was all On Sale.

    Well if it is on sale then you are ok, and you are stimulating the economy!

    I am in the same boat. When I die my son won't even be able to use all the stuff I got. And I can't stop myself.

    I use to have a $300/month problem(my vice). Last month I put Paypal in my wife's credit card and even with clothes(Duluth ) > Spending has dropped to < $100. It's these Long Winters(8 months -) that get me. Too easy to Spend and Click. Wait a day and the urge usually passes me.

    I specifically work a part-time job Nov-Mar to not spend any "combined household" $$...feel like it keeps me from entering into a financial argument I would lose

    I know the feeling. It's too bad that saving money isn't really a hobby

    Lets see ordering from BPS, Tackle Warehouse, Lure Parts Online, Shimano. Multiple trips to BPS and Cabelas. Seems normal to me.
