I don’t ever think I’ve spent as much as I did in one month than I did last month.......must budget better and plan for next year - luckily the way things are going this month should be a far more respectable amount ($30 so far vs $150). Maybe though it serves as a reminder to budget my scrappy money rather than spend it whenever cause I can’t spend that sort of money every month - and yes, I shop SOSN and use coupons.....
 
Jennifer @littlekiwi , I agree with Margaret!! I loved seeing your pages.. they were really fabulous, and I was so happy to see you scrapping. Just an FYI as an incentive for doing the 7 Monthly challenges, is the possibility of winning a $50 coupon to the pad :) That or even the automatic 30% off coupon you get for doing the challenges, but in addition actually doing 7 or 8 pages at least for the month. Creativity with scrapping I always found therapuetic, but with all these additional incentives it is a win-win!!! It was very hard to keep January budget in ceck with all those goodies and incentives :) I think we all did that!

Hope you get to finish your February Monthly challenge pages and perhaps enter a designer challenge for more chances to win coupons :)
 
I knew that I had a lot of kits that I never used before I thought about buying something, I tried to use them before buying something new. It worked for the most part. I'm sorry you spent more than you anticipated, but your layouts were pretty amazing during MoC and I was glad to see you scrapping! <3

If it makes you feel any better, Jennifer, you did absolutely AMAZING this MOC. I was so impressed with your layouts. They’re the best I’ve ever seen you do. You should be really proud of yourself and the work you’ve done. Just consider the money spent as an investment. :agree @littlekiwi

I totally agree with this! I spent my fair share too because I didn't have very much TLP to start with, but it's been a great investment!
 
I did as well. Way toooo much, but I found some new designers, so in the end it was worth it.

And I agree, your pages were gorgeous!
 
I spent about 1/3rd of what I did in January in Feb so I'm quite happy as it works out to be about $10-15 a week and I can get a fair bit from it as I normally only buy SOSN products
