Introducing the Cash Challenged Compulsive Shopper

Hello minna-san!

I, like so many of you out there in the digital world, love to find weird things for sale online. Just like so many of the aforementioned folks, however, I don't have that much money to spend on all of these wonderful things. Whether I'm shopping for birthdays, holidays, or just because, I simply can't spend that much on products or shipping! This shouldn't mean that I can't get wonderfully unique and geeky (uneeky?) things, though! Thus, one of my hobbies (and many sources of procrastination) has become finding great websites that sell weird stuff for great prices.
Since I know that everyone just LOVES to procrastinate like I do, I figured that the "holiday season" (a.k.a. when shopaholics go crazy)was the perfect time to start sharing all the great websites I've found! Even if you don't celebrate anything in particular in the coming months, it's a great time to find amazing sales and get some time off from work to spend on the computer. (Wink wink!) I hope that we'd both be psyched if you keep coming back to find out about amazing websites.
What I'll be doing is writing about a different website every day. I'll post a bit of a review, and even some comments about the speed of shipping for the places that I've bought from. I'll be doing this until the end of the year, but if all goes well, who knows how long this could last? There's no end to creative people, random websites, and my procrastination!
Of course a blog isn't a blog without feedback, though. I'd appreciate it if you'd take the time from your busy net-going life and let me know what you like, what you don't, and what you want to see. If there's anything that you really want to buy, for instance, or if there's a site you'd like to recommend, please leave a comment or contact me.

Best wishes and happy shopping!
