The Perils of eBay

I should preface this post by stating that I, Stephanie Bense, have a problem.  It isn’t something I’m proud of, and I have worked hard to conquer this addiction only to fall at its feet again last week.  eBay.  I seriously need better self-control.  I have one of the steps has to be cutting old ties, which means I REALLY should delete the mobile app off my phone… but… I can’t.  Here are a few of the completely unnecessary things I have bought in the past two weeks:

·         A set of Star Wars Monopoly property deed cards.  Because at the time I figured they would be a cute addition to my monopoly notebooks for that dork in your life.
·         16 Monopoly tokens.  These I’m still justifying because the monopoly token key chains have been a real hit anywhere I seem to set up at.
·         3 reels of film trails.  That’s right, count them up: three.  A Bugs Life, The Emperors New Groove and The Mighty Ducks 2.  Why three? Because I wanted to make 6 inch book marks and can now make thousands apparently.  As an aside, The Mighty Ducks 2 quite possibly one of my favorite movies of all time!

So now not only do I have my previous sort-of-almost-kind-of finished projects.  Now I have NEW projects to start thanks to my low impulse control, the accessibility of eBay mobile and the ease of PayPal.

On a side note, I sighed up for the Egg Harbor City Hometown Celebration and needed more inventory anyway.  July 6th will be here before I know it so time to let the creating begin!

As always: check out the shop: www.averygraydesigns.etsy.com  This week I will be adding the Monopoly token key chains (compliments of my eBay addiction)
