At the cash register

Can the type of payment help you safe money?

Trap:
Credit card-swipe and pay later.
#1-you overspend because you worry about it later. thinking you will just return it. (reality: it ends up being too much effort)
#2-the money accumulates and end of the month, what?!??! $7689!

Best to use:
Cash-pay now.
Why it's the best? The fact that you reach for the bills and count them one by one will make you realize mentally how much you're giving out for the purchase. Oops, $20 gone. another $20 gone. $10 gone. two $5 gone. How many bills are left?

Try one month of just using cash.
Try one month of just using credit card.

Compare and you be the judge.

fav: Mac pigment dupe (coastalscents mica powder)
















Left: Metallic Pearl Honey Tan (peachy shimmer)

2nd column-top to bottom: 
Duocrome green, Emerald Isle, Antique gold

3rd column-top to bottom:
purple punch Glitter powder, Crystal ice, Paradise Star Gold, Cellini Blue

Mac pigments are around $19.50 for 0.15 oz. 
Those huge 1 oz jars are only around $4-6!. (mica fills out around 1/2 of the jar so around 0.5 oz of product!)

Sample ones are 4 ml-0.135 oz. (i dumped the sample ones from baggies to small containers)
They are only $1!!!!!!! Now, don't tell me that that is not a good deal. HELLO.

GREAT PIGMENTATION AND SO VIBRANT. JUST LIKE THE PIGMENTS, CAN BE USED FOR FACE, EYESHADOW, ETC.
