Tell me to stop.

We are in contract for our home.

I keep looking in certain aisles of Target, for example, for bathroom accessories, or bedding, etc.

I have to do everything I can to stop myself from buying stuff.

I shouldn't buy anything for the house yet until I'm in it, right?

Did anyone else have this issue?

I have not bought a damn thing, but I took just about EVERY swatch of paint from Lowe's that I could.

step away from the temptation or keep receipts and make sure you know the terms for the return policy. It is really best to wait, but have fun looking!

I am no help. I bought a dining room set. In my defense, it was on a really good sale...

I've already got the entry bench and some other pieces earmarked, but won't buy them until we're in the house and I've measured. I hope they don't go on sale till we move :)

Re: Tell me to stop.

I wish I could buy stuff-- but going from an apt to a house-- I have no where to store anything.

I more so want to get started so I can pick my paint colors... but I definitely would hold off on purchasing big items. But enjoy the window shopping and doggy ear'ing catalogues!

I think I am going to start a notebook with design ideas for each room.
