Confessions of an (Online) Shopaholic

I admit it. I love to shop.

And with the luxury of just logging on to some of my favourite sites it couldn't be easier. I plead guilty to being a shopaholic these past two days.

Granted I wasn't shopping for sandals or handbags or jeans. In fact, call me a bad mother but I was buying Hannah's birthday gifts a few days late. We knew what we wanted but I knew we could get a great deal if we waited it out.

So, yesterday I picked up two Juicy Couture charms on Beyond the Rack. A rhinestone pear (Hannah's favourite fruit) and a banana split (which she sampled in Cuba). The idea - from Emma's mom - is to buy her a charm bracelet and add on a charm every year. Well at over 60% off, I stocked up.

You would think I would stop while I was ahead but then today on Gilt the Fatboy Bean bags I have been drooling over were also 60% off. While the brown junior bag sold out quickly I was able to snatch the Marimekko floral bag.

Now that Hannah has double the gifts, at more than half off, hopefully my buying streak will wear off.

It's just so tempting to log into my email at 11am and wait to see what goodies will be offered from Babysteals, Kidsteals, The Mini Social, RueLaLa and more. Today I added a new one to my list, BTrendie, thanks to Asher's mom.

Oy vey! A shopaholic could certainly get out of hand on these sites!

Early Birds Take All

I admit it, I am a BabySteals addict. And newly addicted to KidSteals.

I am usually at my computer at 11am to see what the newest item of the day is. But as luck would have it, it always seems that on the days that I am away, the best products are featured.

I missed a great one today on KidSteals that would have been a great 2 year birthday gift for my niece: Chalkmats by Sam & Bellie at 50% off. I logged in an hour late and they were sold out :(

I had never heard of this company before but they have super cute products including bibs, aprons and chalk pens.

This one certainly got "stolen" and unfortunately with a rambunctious 8 month old I am the furthest thing from an early bird, anymore.

Kidnapped

Why should babies have all of the fun?!

Now toddlers and kids can get in on the online action with the newly launched Kidsteals website.

First order of business, Crocs at 55% off.

Looking forward to seeing what other brands this website will offer at discount prices.
