View Full Version : Whew! I got out of there before I got swallowed into the black hole

I almost got sucked into the black hole, otherwise known as the Stampin Up Online Catalog. It was scary, I tell ya! My credit card was almost sucked right out of my purse. The catalog has powerful magnets, so be careful when opening it.

The actual book catalog is sitting in my bookshelf. If I take it out, it's a dangerous thing, also. It has mind altering powers and will convince you that you need at least $100 worth of product before you put it away. It takes me at least 5 days to get over the spell; and by then, it's likely that I've already placed an order with a demo before some sense came back into my head.

{It's Christmas-time, Ethel. Shop for others, not yourself. Shop for others, not yourself. Shop for others, not yourself.............}

Ooooohhh......I can't resist the urge to shop for more rubbah................(hand slapping my cheek).............

LOL....what a funny description. You are absolutely correct though. It does have powers. Just last week it made me spend $100.00....now I can't wait for it to come in. I'm WEAK! What can I say?

That is so funny, I have that same problem. Traci is doing a workshop for me tonight and I know I will spend at least enough to have a really good show so I can get good benefits from it. Is that a normal thing to do or is it just me?

It's mind boggling, isn't it? I look in the book and find things that I NEED and I keep asking myself, should I order it or shouldn't I; should I order it; no don't order yet; wait for the new book but then I cave. What can a poor girl do?

If it's that powerful, I'd better go on line and check it out. You are too funny.
