    I'm broke this year and can't shop. But my coworker showed me her Amazon list and it was quite impressive.

    Got a new crankset for my bike at Chain Reaction. Alright deal, cheaper than Shimano wholesale in my country.

    Ultegra, 200 bucks. Needed it anyway and it's an upgrade.

    My most important buy is my new heart rate monitor. I've been in maintenance for a few years & I stopped tracking exercise calories cuz my old one broke. I'm looking forward to tracking my exercise burn again. 😄

    Fitbit Charge 3, online. Currently using the first Charge, which was an upgrade from the Flex, so this will be my third Fitbit.

    I bought my nephews three DS games on Walmart.com on Dark Thursday & my niece a Trolls Poppy Onesie.

    At Walmart I just got some boring stuff like more PJs for my nephews, cheap towels, a bathroom mat, & some new plastic containers for food.

    Cyber Monday I bought protein bars on GNC.

    It didn't seem like most stores were offering that great of deals this year.

    I'm wondering if sites will be offering better deals after Christmas?

    Is it just me or was black friday kind of a letdown this year. Maybe I just dont have my want kicked into high gear this year, but nothing made me go "O I needs it!"

    I did really want a new garmin, and was kinda undecided, but my local running store did a decent sale and had the exact one I wanted. Gotta support local businesses right? Dont tell my husband.....

    I went all out and bought a new pair of laces for my chucks. Normally I don't splurge like that but my credit card wasn't prepared for that free shipping offer.

    I went WAAAYYY overboard! I bought too much clothes, things for the house, makeup, a luggage set, a heart rate monitor (that has to go back) & an activity tracker. I'm pretty sure there's more stuff but I can't remember right now. :s

    I agree. It feels like this year didn't really wow me. It could also be because I didn't really need any big ticket items. I got my instant pot during amazon prime day. :smiley:

    I got so many emails for cigar sales that I eventually quit looking to see if there was anything I was interested in.

    tbh not smoking them is the best gift of all. but we all gotta have a vice i think.
