Some of the things I'm probably buying with my tax refund:
BeBook Neo
I guess it all comes down to OH, SHINY! Because I certainly don't neeeed it, like I needed the first one. But still, I have some money to burn and I'd rather have this than all the other stuff I can think of. Of course, if I have an epiphany about something else I want before I get my refund, this might be shelved for a little while (though I'll probably be buying it or something like it before the year is out no matter what).
So, I recently realized that if you look at auction sites and the like, you can get these things for about half the price of newly produced stuff. I was actually thinking of getting a couple of bracelets, assembling the charms I like best and then reselling what's left over. This particular bracelet actually has quite a lot of what I'm looking for (lots of oxidized silver, abstract shapes, etc), but I'd want to remove the Taurus charm (I'm not a Taurus), the heart and the fish at the very least. Maybe the four leaf clover and the junebug as well. We'll see, I might not even win it in the auction.
I've actually been coveting this since my last tax refund, but I could never decide to just go out an buy it. Once it was all spent I naturally started craving it, so this time I'm taking the plunge. Haven't quite decided what style I want the necklace in, but I have some time before I have to make up my mind.
Whatever's left is probably going into a savings account, boring as that sounds.
