LOL, you're right, Alex. being good is no fun, but it feels better when you don't have to worry about the c.c payment.

I'm happy to get the bag because it's 30% off retail and tax free, but also fall in the dilemma of should i keep it or not... I can pay it off but that would hurts my saving

CA sales tax is 9.25%, i save a lot on that.

Congrats Karen, you scored a really beautiful bag. I

that colour.
I didn't even get up for this sale

because I slept right through my alarm.
I suppose that was lucky for my bank balance.

yeah, california sales tax is so ridiculous! that's if i want to buy some bags, i wait till i go to vegas cause the tax isn't as high, lol.

congrats karen on your "accidental" bag. hehe. it's such a pretty color though!

I agree that if it was something you were wanting to buy anyway that 30% off is a good savings. It's just not a good deal if you're simply impulse buying something that you didn't necessarily want. KWIM? I can sometimes justify getting something I didn't necessarily want or need if the prices are so good that I would be stupid not to snatch something up. Does that make sense? LOL!

Congrats on the bag though! I know it was an accident, but it sounds like something you might have wanted to buy anyway.

Thanks everyone, vuitton, marilena, jadore and BRS
Yup, CA sales tax is the highest throughout the states!!! it's just too much..
Jadore, let me know when you're going to Vegas..hehe..

BRS, thanks for the comfort... haha.. well, i admit that i want this bag, but my conscious been telling me that I must not get it, it's way too crazy to spend almost 4k in 2 weeks on bags. However, i just cant resist to check out the sales and excited to see the bags are actually saving me more than 700! Now on the other hand.. i really wonder... is it wise to get this bag.. hmm do i sounds like "the confession of shopaholic"?

What do you see as available

I've been getting the "boutique is sold out" message since yesterday. Like 2 hours after the sale began
