Do you ever buy something then regret it the minute you get home? I just bought a blouse; it looked so nice a while ago; now i tried it on again and am realizing it wasn't really worth my money.
Does this happen to you and what do you usually do? just keep the item? return it? sell it? give it away?

I do not buy things on impulse and it takes me a long time to decide whether to buy a thing or not. Cheers!!

This happened to me couple of times and normally I'll go back and changed it, thankfully here in Egypt they'll give you a week time to return or change the item. But if I bought clothes that I'm just going to wear inside the house, I wouldn't mind to change it as long it will fit me, lol.

It has also happened to me. I bought a top. It was something I was dying for in the mall. when I got home, i thought it was just over priced.

Hi Meg,
I have the same experience a lot! lol. You know what, the lights and mirror inthe store are the one cheating on you! You look much nicer and taller in front of that mirror. When you come back to the real life with the normal mirror, the truth come out and you will find the difference.

Hi Meggggg! I actually had the same experience, but mine is a pair of JLO Shoes! It looked good on me during the time I fit it and when I brought it home. Although the difference is, my size is 8, but the available size is only 7 and 9. Wrong move, I chose size 7. Then after one day, I returned it and asked for a different size, perhaps a 9. They didn't take it back because it had a mark that shows it was used already. Too bad. But oh well. I still love it :)
I guess as girls that's the event of "impulse" shopping. I think the best thing to do is bring someone close to us and ask of their opinion about what were thinking of buying! :)
