Online Shopping & Me

Dear journal, 

On a recent morning, I woke up and scrolled through emails on my phone, my eyes still bleary and unfocused.   

Future Shop wanted me to know about its Boxing Week Sale. Kiehl's told me I could have a $15 gift certificate. Hudson's Bay offered me 70% off Samsonite luggage. 

I didn't even need a suitcase, but it was too good of a deal to pass up. I'm a loyal Samsonite customer. And no, this is not a sponsored post (how I wish it was). Almost any luggage will work for those who do one trip a year. But if you are like me, a frequent traveler, you use luggage (a lot!). Every Samsonite comes in a little hefty price, but it lasts and lasts. I've been all over the world with my Samsonite and it's still going strong...Enough with my sales pitch...So yeah, too good of a deal to pass up. I bought it with two clicks as my credit card info was already in its system. All this before even getting out of my bed. 

My inbox wants me to spend. 

Lately, I have been obsessed with home décor. Don't ask me why. My colleague is renovating her house so we have been looking for online deals for quite awhile. Yup, totally obsessed ever since.  

I bought a duvet cover from West Elm (yes, finally in Montreal). The store is located in a very up and coming part of Griffintown. 

I also ordered a canvas print of Van Gogh's Cafe Terrace (I kind of have a soft spot for Van Gogh). I bought it on Joss & Main. LOVE this store. If you're unfamiliar with Joss & Main, it's a flash sale site that offers new curated sales each day many times at up to 70% off retail! You are sure to find unique piece that you won't see in any home. 

I also ordered this Tangiers rug in ivory (Joss & Main). 

Last but not least, I bought this black console table @ Kasa Living. I actually went to the store to get it. Note: their customer service is horrible (and trust me, I'm not a difficult person). 

Sigh. Victim of marketing? Yes, that would be me. 

I'm so screwed (and so very broke).
