And I felt a lot better about it truly being my money that wasn't wasting household money.<BR/><BR/>Tom - damn straight :) If you have to please the client, you might as well get paid, and if it's just your own pleasure...well, there's a name for that, too.Mandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04608028066791266054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-783604029558431761.post-30219398127931543562007-11-26T17:54:00.000-06:002007-11-26T17:54:00.000-06:00Money is the great equalizer, both in mood and in ...Money is the great equalizer, both in mood and in ethics.

I keep two sets of underwear, and never the twain shall meet!<BR/><BR/>Vixen - I think the secret is to find an independent store, or else an established department store with an older group of salesladies. This is hard, though, if you're not in a big city. I was really, really helped by having ladies who knew what they were doing!<BR/><BR/>New Diarist - I'm with you a lot of the time, and it's been rare for me to do major shopping! I, too, would rather go for a walk or see some art. <BR/><BR/>Yes, that is me in the panties :) I would think you'd be able to assemble a pretty complete picture by now!Mandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04608028066791266054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-783604029558431761.post-76233922475919165982007-11-24T17:42:00.000-06:002007-11-24T17:42:00.000-06:00I used to have more patience for shopping. Now, I...I used to have more patience for shopping. Now, I tend to buy most of my things over the internet, and I go into a store pretty much only when I know exactly what I want and I buy that item and then leave.<BR/><BR/>I'm not sure if this means I have become far too provincial in my taste, or that there is no real joy in shopping when I can't afford so much of what I want. <BR/><BR/>I also haven't the patience for crowds these days. I'd much rather wpend the time in a museum or gallery.<BR/><BR/>I did like the panties though. Is that you? I like to look at the various pictures you have posted and try to put them together in my mind into a whole Mandy. Perhaps someday I will succeed.Sous Chefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11467159406200259649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-783604029558431761.post-51455505329410936732007-11-23T00:48:00.000-06:002007-11-23T00:48:00.000-06:00As soon as I read "formal shorts" I thought-"Wait ...As soon as I read "formal shorts" I thought-"Wait doesn't that fug website say something about those?" And then you link to them. hehe<BR/><BR/>I'm jealous that you got such amazing salesladies to help you. It took me awhile to find the kind of bra that worked for me and I so wish I would have had the kind of help you did in a lingerie store.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-783604029558431761.post-69305236496354974182007-11-22T08:23:00.000-06:002007-11-22T08:23:00.000-06:00Much has been said about shopping, but oh my... th...Much has been said about shopping, but oh my... those undies are so hot.

I did that with a friend once, not to the scale of you and Power Girl, but still, it was helpful.<BR/><BR/>I hope you have a good Thanksgiving if it is a holiday you celebrate.
