Ebay. I thought I was spending a cent. No, forty bucks. People like me should not be allowed on the internet.
Once I accidentally spent two grand on Ohio State football tickets for my family (called the credit card company and they let me off the hook!) I signed up for the Columbus Dispatch by accident, and they don't deliver to dorms. When trying to book airfare to New York I practically accepted a trip to Lizard Island (Can you spell LaGuardia?) Freshman year I bought three copies of Dostoevsky's "The Idiot" from Half.com (irony...) and now this. A vase from who knows where that I didn't even like that much, but bought on an impulse because O.O1 attracts me.
The sad thing is, in real life, in real stores I have never made an impulse buy. I am very frugal and I will carry something around the whole store, just to leave it at the register. If I do bye something I get stomach ulcers until I return it. Unlike most women, I need the therapy AFTER the retailing. And yet.... eBay.
Its so easy. I really don't get it. And its permanent.
I bought my boyfriend two little transformers pocket toys from the internet, but only gave him one. As far as he knows, I'm e-savvy.
