NBR amazon shopping

in June 2011 Moms

So I was given $75 in amazon gift cards for Christmas from MH's uncle.  But he told me I have to spend it all on myself, no baby stuff allowed.  I can totally respect this since it was his money.  This followed a conversation about how I have not bought anything for myself except essentials like jeans and shoes that actually fit since nothing prepregnancy fit and it's a bit too cold to wear shorts and flipflops.

I just can't figure out anything that I want!  I keep coming back to baby stuff.  Or stuff for MH.  He!!, I have even looked at collars for the furbabies.  Who woulda thought that it would be so hard to make myself buy stuff for me...

    Lol, that's what I keep leaning toward but I just downloaded a ton of free books.  Like 60 of them.

    I just looked back at my orders from last year (like 46 orders, some of which had 2+ items..yikes!) Of those, the only things I bought are: lube, razor refills, bite guard, steamvac, windshield wipers, K-cups, bio oil, one book. All very exciting things. Everything else was for DH, the baby or the dog!

    I know what you mean.  I had a list a mile long of gift ideas for the babies for christmas and when everyone asked what I wanted I said nothing...they forced me to make a list so I went with bakeware....and got that amazing deep dish lasagna pan I've always wanted!  And a deep fry which I will most likely hardly ever use, cupcake pans and a mini donut baking pan.

    So in the end the gifts weren't exactly for me alone....but I'd be the one using them.  I don't have a lot that I need since all of my pre-2n'd pregnancy clothes still fit.

    I tried to talk someone into a giftcard for a massage but they didn't go for it.

    If I had $75 to spend on me I'd buy:cookbooks, movies, makeup, maybe a shirt I'd never spend the $ on normally (or a dress or boots).  That is all I can think of. :) Hope that helps.

    edit:  I thought of more! Perfume, fancy soap or lotion a nice frame.  :)

    A few things I've purchased from Amazon recently (some as gifts): Biscoff spread (obsessed), a smaller crock pot, Bare Minerals makeup, shoes, a webcam to Skype, OPI nail polish, a 2-quart casserole dish and some other kitchen utensils.
