Mine's not too big, I've just checked and it's $80, if I get the full SR next month I'm going to get it right down.

Oh, I don't have the strength to add mine up! It is REALLY full! Now I am nervous. I may have to set a budget! Or go do some MAJOR sweet talking to the hubby!
I am ready for my SR so I can just get it over with. It is like a band aid. It will only hurt for a second! LOL

I plead guilty. I don't want to know how much it is, but I'd say something over 200 USD. I managed to clear it by mistake an hour ago, so now I'm adding stuff in preparation for SRs, and I have a feeling I'm adding more than there was before.

The best part about the wishlist, is that I can stare at a kit that I SWEAR I need for a while, and then if my style or needs change, I can just remove it. No more feelings of guilt or regret! I've done that a few times now, and I like it

This is me to. I love giving myself time to think about my purchases. I have hundreds and hundreds of kits on my PC, and I really need to think each purchase through. That being said, there are AMAZING kits that come out each week here at SSD. It's hard to resist!

Mine has grown a lot over the past couple of weeks, and I'm not shopping again until NSD, so it's going to sit there for awhile. I'm hoping by that time, my NEEEED for some of it will have passed and I can remove it.

In the meantime, I'll be very busy working my way through my stash of GGG goodies. My "Not Used Yet" folder is ginormous!!

I do this too - its kind of like cooling off time. I still want them, but just not a much as newer ones: I'm fickle and easily distracted with shiny new kits

My wish list is always going to be WAYYYY bigger then my budget can afford. I mean how can it not be when there are sooo many amazing designers in one place? But really the last time I added mine it was over 500. I dont NEED all of it. Probably not even 1/4 of it really. But I add what I like and that way I can go back when I do have money to get something. I have about 65 gigabytes on my harddrive and I just got rid of like 30 gigabytes of stuff Ill never use so really I have sooo much that I dont really need to shop for months and I would be ok.

I'm afraid to add mine up because I'm always adding to it. I'll get a few things this time and then I'm hoping for 40% off for my April portfolio to get some more next month.

Mine is huge. Every week I add at least a few things to it, then when SR comes up, I buy about 5 or 6 kits normally. So its always gonna be huge. Some of them though are kits I love, but have no use for yet (like themey ones).

When I first joined the site, I went through EVERY kit and wish listed anything I even remotely wanted.

Then, a week later, I added the new kits I wanted, and went through and removed anything that I knew I just did due to a case of the gimme gimmes. That helped a little (not nearly enough).

I add new kits every week, but I figure if I buy my 100%-absolute-must-have-can't-live-without-need-themight-NOW kits each month... and each month when I do so, weed out any kits I don't think I'll use... I should be good.

My 100% must have right now, is I really want the Travel edition of the e-zine (can't think of the name, I feel dumb, but too lazy to look right now). We're going on vacation in June, and this will give me time to read it 2,3,12 times before we leave. Also I have some kits I have to have! I keep telling myself no, because I spent so much during GGG.

I did that too! Luckily, a lot of it was retiring this year... I found SSD just at the right time it seems... so I picked a lot of my absolute faces up ay 50% off!

I was really good last month and simply wish-listed every new kit I loved but couldn't think of anything to scrap right away. Now I have SR coming up and can save that little extra, which means buying more right? :P

My wishlist is always growing. But at least that means my CC isn't getting a hammering every time I ooh and aah.

If I went through my wish list and added it up - I think I would throw up -
Ok - Now I have to do it

Stopped at 200 - Its way more - but to be fair I probably will not own everything in my wish list - Its things I like and some of them I go back and forth on -

Mine was huge then I started whittling it down a few months ago. Then I'd add a couple things for a few weeks, then prune one week. Like Colleen & others I use mine aas a asort of holding pen to decide if I really need the item. I always *want* the item but given a chance to step back & think about it I often decide I don't need it. I ended up with $50 in my cart today, pre discount, then I cleared the wish list. For the first time in ages I now have an empty wish list.
