I just wanted to announce, that I have now gained SELF CONTROL! Yes, you heard it ladies. I am not ordering rocks! During this sale. Normally, I would have been like, "ooh 50% off! must buy loads!", but now I know better. I have a tight budget. And saving $12 now isn't as good as just spending 12$ more three or four months from now. I am saving up for the LE! Plus, sample baggies of rocks! last longer than I first thought b.c. I don't wear those bright shades so often, and then only as accents. So yay! I am no longer bleeding money!

Congrats!!! I too am not buying rocks! this week.Sadness.Im also saving for the LE collection.I took all of my strength not to order though. Haha we can do this together.

Yay! Partners in crime!

omg yes, i did the same! restraint... lol

me too, waiting for the new LE collection to come out. i firgure i can always order sample baggies later on for cheap

I'm odd duck out on this. I showed no restraint at all. But I'm back at work after having been laid off for 3 months. So I figured I've earned it by having by to restrain myself during that time.
I think that was what I hated most about being laid off.... no Aromaleigh packages in the mail.

I broke down and ordered some that I just couldn't wait to have

Haha, yeah, I did that too (ordered some nice AL) when I got my job back. But now I am saving to move into a new apartment... However, once I am settled, and know my budget.... hmmmm

Yes, seriously, I had no idea in the beginning how long sample baggies would last! I was buying two full size jars of some shadows in the beginning, having know idea how long even a sample baggie would last!

I had to go for the sale since I missed out on the last one. I bought deathvalley, shadowoflove, and googoomuck.

Ahh, I meant to order but never got to play around with my samples to see which ones I wanted in fs. oh well. Hopefully the LE will be totally awesome and I can just enjoy that.

Yea I hit up the last two Rocks! sales so Im pretty good for now.Of course I had to get samples though (and of course I liked them...).

Again Im going to repeat the phrase that echoes in my head whenever I am on here buying mu "Vanity....Thy name is Melissa". Hahaha.

I'm in the 'self control' boat with you girl!!
I resisted buying items too...and let me tell you is was PAINFUL!!! But then when we do have a little extra to spend- those AL eye shadows will be even more precious to us!

I didn't hit the rocks sale, but I did cave and order a bunch more samples... I stink at self control!

I, too, stink at self-control.

I got a check direct deposited... for the first time... Maybe it was a bad idea. I'm THIS close to spending it all on clothes, shampoo/conditioner/body soap, and make up. I'm trying to restrain myself. Maybe I'll just look at sales...
