Bless my heart - I might need an intervention

I started out the year AMAZING!
No purchases in January but then… it went all downhill from there.
I’ve participated in swaps, bought some DAVIDs (and of course, I needed to spend at least $50 to get free shipping), and then Adagio did a thing for groundhog day and I managed to get a free chai sampler on my next order which definitely MEANT I had to place an order to get it! I’ve definitely spent more money here and there on teaware and going out for tea with my roommates.

I’m going to fly back home for spring break and that means that I’ll be near San Francisco again and… that’s the only place where DAVIDs is at on the west coast, and of course I need to replenish my special San Franciscian blends from Lupicia, and a trip to the Japanese Tea Garden is a must :))

BUT I’m justifying it all because I just accepted an offer with Disney so… I’M REWARDING MYSELF WITH TEA.
I wanted to spend around $300 for the entire year but… I’m already close to half my budget and March just started…

Freakin tea though. Why does it have to be so good.

Congrats! I think you are allowed to reward yourself, especially if you are in a place where you can get things that are unique or save on shipping.

Thank you!
I’m just justifying the fact that I’m spending much more than budgeted. I knew $300 was small but… it’s the free shipping bit and discounts that get me haha. If it’s discounted then I should totally go for it.. so… I’m getting it.
Reasons why I have like no money at all.

ugh, those groundhog day sales will totally get you…

girl, don’t apologize….with so much good tea floating around, who could afford to resist it? ;)

Congrats on your job, and yes, you deserve to reward yourself!

Aww thank you so much! I was so close to tears when I got the acceptance email. It’s the Internship program that I’m doing and it’s one step closer to a Professional Internship :))
Dude I just… I start in June so I have plenty of time to calm myself haha :)
