It's been 17 days since my last purchase. I am strong. I have willpower. I can beat this thing! I CAN DO THIS!!!
Okay, truth is I've been too busy flirting to shop for books. Traded one weakness for another. |

I didn't last that long myself. I fell to the temptation of the 10 volumes of the Spook books when they were all listed at $0.00 for a short while. Just couldn't pass up a bargain.

Yeah, I know that method . Even though I know the exact date or the release, I keep on checking maybe they've released it sooner. It happened once. I was over the moon like I'd won the lottery or something... *shakes head at herself*

I am so glad for your company here on the thread as I am in dire need of a friend. I bought two ebooks ($2.99 and $4.58) today and f**ed up my stats. It is now 45 ebooks bought till August 2010 and only 25 of those read. I fight to read some more until Friday but defeat is near in the release of two books of series I have been following. Do I have to expose myself to sun now, to erease my worthless Batcarcass from the face of the earth? Bette the Bat (Friend of Lucifer's Brat) |

Be not afraid my batly buddy! Glory in your purchases! Revel shamelessly as you click that "Buy Now" button. Ignore the empty rantings of a frustrated non-buyer victimized by her no-doubt raging hormones! When the dust settles, remember who will have the most ebooks!

Hm, this one is tricky. I vowed to myself not to buy any ebooks for money until 7/1. I did some beta reading for a self-pubbed author and she gave me a gift card so I can buy her book and also some others as a sort of quid pro quo. Would it be evil of me to buy some books now including hers or should I wait until 7/1? TRICKY!

Okay I'm off the wagon. I bought 5 books this weekend. Most for $.99 & $2.99. But one was for a whopping $11.99. I just had to have The Little Women Letters
