Ok so I was going to a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu class this morning and it ended up being canceled and it’s a good drive from my home so I was like F it I’ll go to the outlet mall nearby. I ended up going there and spending so much time... I didn’t buy too much but a shirt for my dad, a friend and I so 3 shirts plus my friend needed a cutting board so got her that and two locks for my job, these travel containers to carry liquids and a book on all the national parks of the USA which I could have waited to buy at a book fair for way cheaper but wanna do some national park trips before then. I was very tempted to buy more things and things I definitely didn’t need or could Atleast get cheaper and really had to control myself... at one point when I was debating buying a second pair of sunglasses I thought what if corporations or something had implanted some type of chip in my brain that they can activate to trigger me to want to spend money. I felt crazy for having such a thought but was life what if. I then thought of all the sweet purchases in the Thrift Stores Haul subreddit and decided to stop there. Oh I also ended up eating lunch at the mall that ended up running me $38. It was Texas de Brazil and 330 PM and hadn’t eaten all day but still...
