I've had my eye on an MZ Wallace bag for years. The original one I really liked back in 2016(?) isn't sold any longer, but this one is pretty great. I prefer nylon/cloth to leather almost always. I called it a Mother's Day present.
I joined Book of the Month, meaning a new-release book is delivered to me each month. Previously, this is something I somewhat scoffed at because I, as a rule, don't buy books. The potential clutter of having books I don't love on my shelf bothers me. But it's probably a nice way to treat myself during a spring/summer when I know I won't be getting hardcovers from the library like I did last year and I won't be spending money on pedicures. I also got my mom a subscription for Mother's Day.

I noticed that Nexxus products were on sale on the Target app, so I ordered purple shampoo and conditioner. I maintain whole-heartedly that I don't have a lot in the way of skillsets, but the most useful thing I ever learned how to do was highlight my own hair. Aside from being a nurse or a doctor or a teacher (another win!), can you think of something else that would be just as important during these times of quarantine? (I'm kidding..kind of).
And Oreos. If you're not buying Double Stuf, you're doing it wrong.
I had gotten a zipper clutch from Nordstrom Rack a few years ago and it's proven very helpful as a pocket in whatever tote I'm using at the time. I started looking for another since that first one is a bit worn out. I grabbed this one for $14 and it'll do the job and, honestly, be a nice summery clutch if I have the occasion for such an item. I don't love the cork trim, but I do like the green pattern a lot. This was a purposeful impulse buy; I rarely do this, but I can think of lots of uses for this bag.
Stitchfix
And, in a moment of sheer boredom and need for change, I set up a Stitchfix box. Should be here this week. I'll let you know how it goes.
I also have this new tradition I'm starting for Wells. Since he was born in Wyoming and we only really lived there for several months, he's getting Wyoming gear for each birthday. That isn't until July, but I figured I'd be prepared.
Might as well grab some shirts for Scott and me too.
And moving on to what I've gotten from Amazon lately...it's a long list..
+K-Cups.
+Two different types of picture frames for Mother's Day gifts. 8x10 and 5x7. I always, always buy frames on Amazon now. The idea of browsing for frames is pointless. I was impressed with the quality of these ones.
+Dishwand sponges. I forgot these on the weekly Walmart trip.
+New mascara. My old one was 3+ months old and I was concerned about an eye infection so I just tossed it.
+Moving storage bags. We have about 20 of these and use them for clothes when we move. It's so much more efficient than using cardboard boxes or totes.
+New sleepsack. I love this one. It's perfect for summer.
+Allergy pills that I DO NOT RECOMMEND. I was in a state of fatigue for a full 24 hours after I took one. Don't do it. The description says non-drowsy so that's a joke.
+Plastic balls for the ball pit. This is the pit I got but it didn't come with the plastic balls. (also, I remember very clearly that the pit was $25 and the balls were $29, so prices have gone up :( )
+Vacuum. I really like this one so far. Especially for that price. After two moves, our Shark had had it.
What are you buying these days?
