Wish List - what you want/what you can get comparison

Okay.....I thought this might be fun for some of you to do and others to see.

And....it may help you prep for Black Friday as far as what you are going to get.

I currently have $414.93 (at full price) worth of stuff in my Wish List. (aggghhhh!) and I have to narrow that down to only a mere $40 worth of stuff on Black Friday. Granted, that $40 will go a bit further due to whatever sales might be going on but still have a ton of narrowing down to you. I need a job!

So, how does your wish list total price compare to what your budget is for Black Friday?

Oh geez... I have about $400 worth on my wish list, but I wanna spend as little as possible! I haven't figured out my scrapping budget yet because I'm going actual black friday shopping, but my guess is I'll spend at least $100 here.

LOL well since I have been on a spending freeze for nearly a year and have wishlisted almost the entire store and have no money to spend that is pretty easy It wont be to much longer (I hope) until Im not on a spending freeze and will be able to start buying a little bit here and there though so I just keep adding more to the wishlist and waiting.

I don't have anything in my wish list. I pretty much pick up what I want when it comes out, and I've been around long enough to have a ton. I also don't have any money to spend this weekend....

so I'll be working all day on Friday to make sure I don't spend money!

I have about $800 worth of stuff on my Wish List here. I will probably be able to spend about $10-$20 (hopefully) and I have coupons worth $15 to add to that. So here's hoping I can widdle away a tiny amount of that massive list.

I have $134 of product in my wishlist (full price). I am pretty free with throwing things in my wishlist - so not every single item in there is a must have. There are some that I love but am not sure how I'd use, some that I sorta want but they are - say - summer themed and by the time summer rolls around I'll probably find something else I want. And there are at least a couple that are very "themed" and I don't necessarily want to buy them until I'm ready to use them (I've got a couple girly birthday-ish kits and I won't need them for about a year lol). So, my wishlist is kind of a holding ground of things I don't want to forget. I bought most of my "must-haves" from my wishlist on digital scrapping day so it's not so full right now. That being said - I'm sure I'll shop here on black friday if there is a sale. If there isn't a sale, I'll wait because there's nothing on there that I have to have at full price.

If I had to guess I'd say I'll spend $25ish.

I use my wishlist like this, too. I've been scrapping long enough that there aren't a lot of MUST haves for me. When I see one (maybe 2-3 items a month), I buy it during the new release sale that week. Stuff gets wishlisted if I like it, but don't need it right away. There's way more on there than I'll ever buy--about $600 worth. But I may decide that during a particular sale I want a set of templates, a metal alpha, a purple and blue kit, and a space kit. I go to the wishlist and choose from what's there. I'll probably spend about $30 total in BF digisales. If it's a good sale, it'll be about $20 here.
