I will resist, I will resist, I will resist!
It is soooo hard, even with all the freebies being offered!
I almost gave in with the deal on the Ed McBain backlist books. I loved those, when I read them years ago.
I almost gave in and still trying to resist the New Fictionwise coupon deal.
I'll just keep telling myself to "read the freebies and cull the backlog", "read the freebies and cull the backlog", "read the freebies and cull the backlog."
Is anyone else having a hard time not purchasing? I'm using the Wish List option, but still so hard to not click the buy button.

Well, I think the Ed McBain deal was one you should have taken up. I doubt that we'll see them at $0.99 each again for years. I would have bought them all, except for the regional restriction. (I'm very pleased I got all the Agatha Christies when Fictionwise did something similar a couple of years ago.)
The Fictionwise 50% off? Meh. There will likely be a 55% or even 60% off at some point this year. Just add the books you want to your wishlist.
Freebies? I don't count freebies. I get them, but I don't add them to my unread total or purchase count. I only get them because it's silly not to, even if there's only a 1% chance I'll want to read it in the future.
