I have big order placed and I am just giddy. Do you get that way when you place an order? Buyer's high I guess. There will be no remorse.

That is what I miss most about placing orders! I did get to have a small "buyer's high" earlier this week when I placed an order for probiotics at Swansons. Not quite the same though...

LOL @ Jen.

I get that feeling too, and I love it. I'm hoping to place an order today, but I'm waiting on a couple of things to hit the store, so it may have to wait until Monday or Tuesday. I really want to hit that button!

Tax refund will be here soon and I am going shopping right here! I love the excitement of opening my Two Peas orders!

Yes, I do. I was just looking fondly at the items in my cart. Not going to pull the trigger, but I know what you're talking about.

I got my first ever Studio Calico kit yesterday. Just opening up the box and going through all the things was awesome! Buys high and then a reinforced high when opening the package itself.

Sometimes I get my order and wonder why I didn't order more.

Not pulling the trigger can be dangerous. I had 2 items drop fall out of my cart because they sold out while I was holding off.

I know EXACTLY how you feel! I made a good dent in my CHA wish list today and I am so excited about what I ordered - can't wait for it to arrive. Soon I will have all kinds of awesome new paper, embellishments, stamps and inks to play with.

I hope you have fun creating with what you ordered & that the wait is not too long.

I've had very few buyer remorse feelings with scrappy purchases! Love the ordering high; the waiting on the order kills me; and then the high again opening the package! And then that smug feeling when actually using all the goodies. Like, yes, I knew I was right in ordering this.

Me too! Not a big order, but I placed an order for a bunch of clearance stuff today. I've never done that before, but I just kept adding more and more clearance stuff, thinking there was no way I'd place a big enough order to get $50 plus of new stuff, AND all the clearance stuff I wanted (for free shipping).

So, I just went ahead and did a smallish order of the clearance stuff that I was wanting (Amy Tan Ready Set Go, AC Shoreline, some Dear Lizzy 5th and Frolic, and some other bits and pieces). So excited!

Yes, I love placing orders and the anticipation almost kills me! Then you have the awesome day when you get to drool and fondle all of your new goodies!

I have it delivered to my work address because I don't want it to disappear from my front step before I get home. I LOVE LOVE LOVE getting packages at work.

If shipping wasn't an issue I would order a thing or 2 every.single.day.

I don't order online much since I have several local options but boy have I lately. I am doing Project life and want one main paper line and 2peas has it so I figured I would adopt it for this album. The last order was my largest ever...I got free shipping. Loved the day it arrived. Oh my.

ugh, I am in the opposite position right now! My hubby wants to convert my craft room back into a family room. So I will have to fit all of my stuff into a closet (albeit a big one with lots of shelves) so I have to purge...not looking forward to that one.
Have fun with all of your new goodies, I am just hoping that with all my purging and sorting I will find "new" things that I forgot I had!

I find that when I don't order, I miss ordering. The more I order, the more I am inspired to scrap and use my new stuff! It's a vicious cycle, but a happy one!

The real happiness for me is when it arrives. I love finding a beautiful scrapbooking box on my porch!

I put every thing away right after I fondle it. Maybe the high would last longer if I left it out for a while. I can't wait to use it. I just can't wait. BTW I now have 2 orders placed. The second one is a little one but it is what I am most excited about.

I LOVE placing my order and it's always too big but I never feel guilty. I'm always too excited! Enjoy your new stuff!

I know what you mean! I placed my largest 2 peas order ever (around a $100), and I felt like a kid on Christmas when it got here Saturday. I got a fun mix of new and old, and I was super excited to get the DL 5th and Frolic (finally) for 25% off...until I saw that it went to 50% off a day or 2 after I ordered, lol! Don't you hate it when that happens? The scary thing is, I already have more stuff in my bucket, and I "have to have" some new Maggie Holmes when it gets here. Then I guess I will put myself on a "no buy" until Summer CHA...

I placed an order today. Super excited to get the new Bella Blvd surf & sand. I also bought some valentine stuff on sale.

I love, love, love getting new scrap supplies. It's always exciting to think of the layouts I can do. I especially love getting new stuff when I am down or been sick. Always lifts my spirits.

Happy shopping everyone!

The anticipation of ordering through here is a lot of fun. I had items in my bucket waiting for me to hit "checkout" for 3-4 days (older items I wasn't nervous about selling out fast) and it was fun to just go look through my cart and see what I had there...then it was fun to hit order...now it's fun to watch the tracking progress...and tomorrow it'll be fun to open the box. It's like a week of fun filled entertainment!
