How you win ? I also want.

They gave out freebies mid way. Guessed number or 成语。

 

[Burmesedaze]

Won this which opens to reveal a clockface

The other freebie was a small flat icy hulu.

@Bluegemz was it you that posted jade grapes in the form of a ring some time back?
I saw this on Wechat and thought of that

 

[Burmesedaze]

And another

 

[Burmesedaze]

Stuff on LS tonight fairly good value but didn't hit the 120% spot for me

Big ruyi at 2500rmb+10%.
Scenery pendant, icy, at 3000rmb+10% but has a "fortune" spot in the middle towards the bottom. Nice clean material. Really tempted. Except foot spot.

Update!!!! In a big twist and turn of events I've decided to buy nothing

I think I'm ok with my cheap jade ring. I don't feel like the 22800 rmb is going to make me as happy as it should so I'm halting for now.

I know! It's so weird right???!!!!

Well done. Does it apply to another pink stone too?

No, no no! This is what they call growing up and maturing. Time flies...next thing you know you'll hit 30, and start to think you're an old lady!

Take your time. Slowly. It’s ok. I have pulled out before of things I thought I really really had to have.

I've always got the door open for a beautiful, large pink!

But I'm really in love with the one I bought last year so pretty content for now.

Haha I blame my month long break! It's changed me

I'm pretty sure I'm blacklisted by No 5 now

I did ask her a lot of questions! But I was going through a process.

I had to work out I wanted a better quality ring and then finally realised that at this time, that ring wasn't going to make me any more happy that I already am. Neither was an even more expensive ring.

I do feel bad asking her for so many photos! Next time I will hassle you guys first!

Hehe I sense I will have trouble when I do actually want to buy something! She thinks I'm a flake!

I realised I went on a full on buying bender after my darling boy (golden retriever) passed away. Things have settled somewhat. I have a lovely shrine set up for his ashes (you know like a worship alter) and I can walk through all our old walking spots without any kind of meltdown these days. I think that has reduced my need for the high and the excitement of constantly buying and waiting for parcels which distracted me from my misery over his passing.

FYI, Number 5 isn't that brilliant herself. Look at pendant she sold me and her attitude towards the setting of the icy pendant. She even told me to buy ready-set stuff, after her icy pendant boo boo. And well, I did buy ready-set stuff. Still crooked.

I no longer feel bad when I pull out. For anything or anyone. My money. If I decide not to, so be it. Even if I was so so close and I had said, yes, I am going to buy.

I have been brought up to be very polite, so that I was (still am sometimes) forever sorry and afraid of stepping on toes. There was a time when I would not step into a Chanel store if I was not buying. And I felt terrible or funny walking out empty handed. Nowadays, I just walk in, looky look, see, ask, feel, touch. And I go out. F their dirty looks (but I believe part of it is all in my mind - I think they are giving me dirty looks). I still don't own a Chanel bag.

Nowadays, I don't care. If they not happy, it's ok. I am happy. And if they refuse to deal with me, their loss. Not mine. Because what I want will come again, later on, from them, from somewhere else, if you go look. And it is nice to know, if I want, I can buy. Of course, at the moment, it seems very hard to stomach but then the desire lessens and I have so many things to worry about anyway, I soon forget and there will always be the next best thing after that.

I taught myself this. After many many lessons and snubs. And haha, still learning.

Do you guys buy diamonds from Whiteflash? How is it?

Bought a diamond bangle which I lost in the Tractor Supply parking lot, also had them set my diamond with their aca melee. Absolutely love the company. Great customer service.

The ban worked!! Congratulations!!

I don't know how!! It was the only place I went that day so it had to have fallen off there. Now when I go, I suspiciously look at every employee's wrist. This happened 12 years ago...

They are the darlingest of darlings! I have a 10 yr old little girl. 10 years going on 2. The sweetest, most good natured and good hearted baby ever.

My golden boy was a devil. He disliked the world and was aloof to everyone (weird for a golden) but adored me! Pink Bandit says he was my equivalent of a bad boy!

Haha there is something to be said about a grumpy dog who lights up when he sees you and only you. I could see why people sometimes went for bad boys!

!!!!!!!!!

Then, there is reason for a serious jewel by the end of the year .)

 

[Burmesedaze]

Ok I just bought this for 208 rmb .
Lulutong. I like the carving.

Cheaper than a nice meal.

 

[Burmesedaze]

The meaning of such barrels signifies everything goes smoothly your way. No obstacles

 

[ChaiK]

Confidence soaring...

Not really. I now tell myself, what would a man do?

Then I do it - with zero feelings, exactly like a man.

I watch my husband and emulate.

Yes. Either this way, or move on. So many other things in life

The mum says I have to get rabbits to match whatever is required in my birthsign etc etc etc.

So I got them rabbits. Glassy rabbits. For ear studs. Needs bling halo to increase the 12mm length!

@Burmesedaze

Like that, I like. But this is me. I am going to do my jadeite butterflies like that. I think these are brooches though. Maybe for earrings, scale down.

Butterflies on auspicious clouds?

 

[Burmesedaze]

Plenty of very very nice things on tonight's LS. But I stopped at the 2 above. Self control.

 

[Burmesedaze]

These are quirky. Maybe if I find a nice green pair.

But you know, heck it. I really have too much schtuff to mix and match. Simple with some bling means it will see more wear because it's easier to match.
