I was just wondering. Is there a way I can lock myself out of B/S/T or any of the places I am constantly tempted to empty my wallet. The equivalent of a 'fridge magnet that says something inspirational about not "buying both".

This post is only half in jest. When I was just a lurker it was >much< easier since I couldn't post and talk to folks. Those areas are like a vacuum cleaner on my wallet. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/broke.gif Help. . .

There, I feel better now. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/jpshakehead.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ohgeez.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/banghead.gif
Thanks for looking.

All right already. Geez, nothing like being stalked by a dealer.

When I'm back in the US I'll be placing an order and you'd better have it in stock or I'll send Guido after you.

You've noticed. Hmm, well I'm not worried. I've got a healthy self image and plenty of self control. That's why I started this thread. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/Christo_pull_hair.gif

Well I'm off to work. Take it easy Jon.

Get Sasha to ban you for 30 days..or however long it takes you to get your finances back under control.
-And make her promise that she will not un-ban you earlier than you originally requested. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

vcal,

OK so if I follow your idea I become a "re-lurker". The problem is I can still see the posts and be tempted. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/evilgrin07.gif That's where it all starts.

Maybe, along the lines of the 'fridge magnet I could get a popup that says something like "woe to all ye who enter here. . ."

Thanks Nekomane. I really do need a nice trip 'home' though I'm afraid that there are computers there too. My Mom beta tests for MS and my stepfather is an electrical engineer. The whole place is wired. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif Not to mention all the poor souls I've got to enlighten for Christmas. It's my mission, no marginal lighting tools allowed in the house.

I take it you read my other thread which is how you know about my upcoming trip. It's the first in a while. I spent Golden Week on a cot in the office trying to get the computers dialed in with a new server. Didn't turn out well.

Catch you later,
LT

Lunal, I had problems with too many purchases, . . . . .and that ended in a depletion of my Paypal. My wife told me I couldn't buy anymore flashlights unless I sold some of what I already had. I did, and now, I'm back in the unashamed flashlight buying business again! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Orion,
Actually it's my SO(significant other) that adds fuel to the fire. She likes bright shiny things too. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

She's the reason I'm waiting by the post box with baited breath for my latest purchase. Maybe I shouldn't show her the pictures of the lights since word descriptions of the items seldom get much interest.
