What kind of shopper are you?
I'd say
moody.
Some days my wise mind speaks to me and tells me not to purchase, or overspend. Other days my emotions get the best of me and before you know it, I can't take it back! I try not do anything involving money on those emotional days, but some days they sneak past me and I'm kicking myself the next day!
Do you plan ahead? Do you budget? Do you shop for specific themes or colors?
I try plan/budget so I can figure how I'm going to justify it in to the budget/bills for the month. Around holidays and when things are themed (like back to school, etc), I try to just pick ONE or none of the products. Chances are one of my designers is going to have a themed kit and that's really all I need to do to scrap those few photos that I'll take or have taken in the past. I really love specific themes,
if they apply for our family or previous photos. Colors--am totally a sucker for purple in kits. Hopefully too many designers don't see that or there goes my spending money!
Do you have photos in mind to use when you purchase a kit?
For the most part, yes. I have an idea which photos I'll use or take to use with said kit/product.
