FML! lent is killing me, but saving my wallet!

So, I know lent barely started last wednesday, but I'm already freakin' dying here! I gave up fast food, soda, shopping (for clothes, shoes, & accessories), and buying makeup for 40 days! ahhhhhh! To me, giving up fast food and soda is pretty easy.. and on top of that I'm saving more money by eating at home rather than paying at a drive-thru. Giving up shopping is kinda difficult for me, because it is SOOOOOOOO hard for me to pass up a good sale or clearance item! haha but damn, -- giving up buying makeup/cosmetics is just plain insanity! It's killing me right now! My boo just reminded me that it's only 36 more days til easter, but it still seems so far away.

And it just so happens that so many places are having good sales online.. i think beautycrunch.com is having a STILA sale, and Sephora.com is having a 15% off entire purchase + free shipping on any orders over $35.. I just got a little sadder as i typed that last sentence =( ah but I gotta resist temptation and I'm gonna be nice and show you the codes so at least someone can get a good deal!



HERE'S THE SEPHORA SHOPPING CODES:

Get FREE Shipping on orders of $35 or more! Enter code SHIP35 at checkout!

  • Code: J89LM

  • How much: 15%off

  • Sale Ends: March 7th

Hope you enjoyed my whining..
