What Kind of Shopper Are You?
Of all the quizzes I have taken, this one looks really ME! 
|
You Are a Discount Shopper |
 You love to get things as cheaply as possible. You live for sales. It’s partially because you like to save money, but it’s also because you like the thrill of finding a fabulous deal. Of all the types, you tend to shop frequently but rarely by. You keep an eye on prices. |
Holiday kits at the digiland
Being so bored yesterday, I spent my afternoon browsing on different Christmas digital kits around the digital land. I’m in fact looking for a nice Christmas kit that I’m going to use for the coming holiday photos plus the one I’m going to use for my daily Christmas album, which I’m planning to make (crossing finger so I can finish it, hehe) …. Soooo here are the kits I have seen around so far (all images are linked to it’s specific store):
Top on my list is Gina Cabrera’s holiday charm. Love her papers… and currently this is on intro price at $5.99:
I love Kasia’s kit as well… hehe… I guess this is currently on sale too:
I saw this at DST product gallery and looks wonderful… and this is cheaper for a full kit, $3.02:
Over at SSD, these two are my picks:
The last three from Shabby Miss Jenn. She has beautiful holiday kits actually and these 3 are my faves:
So far those are my finds. No, i didn’t buy any yet. I’m actually waiting for the black friday sale, LOL!
How about you, do you find any beautiful holiday kits around? Freebie or for sale, just link me up.

Saturday 9My Wishes
Finally posting my wish list for our Twitter friends exchange gift…
Ok, side story muna. My main and first wishes really were camera related items. But since Mr. Santa will take care of my geek stuff I hold off to that and end up browsing on Etsy for another night, LOL! I got lots of items already on my favorites and the elimination round has been the hardest part, LOL!. And that explains why it took me so long to post my wish list… (gumawa pa ng excuse, hahaha)
Anyway, so here you go. Since buying jewelry is the least thing I would do for myself, might as well put that on my wishes now… and also I’d like to have a vintage locket necklace for a long time and these are just perfect. “I love tiny simple necklaces. One’s that can go with any outfit, and be worn daily…” … got that from one of the seller and that’s what I wanted to….
Listed according to my preference:
1. Vintage locket ecru rose |
2. Silver Rose locket |
3. Petit Locket Doux Set |
I also like the pouch below. I saw it on Joy’s etsy wish and I’m in love with the color, that’s my fave. So I just include it here for other options, hehe…
4. Pleated Wristlet Pouch in Sophia Lawn
And that’s it. I’ll shoulder any excess Mommy! Thank you so much!
