$25 on myself? Hrm...probably garnier bb cream and an eyebrow wax or shoes.

question buddy do you read magazines? which ones? do you already have a subscription to one? if so which one?

If they're bought for me I read them, lol. I really like Star for the crossword puzzle in it I used to have subscriptions from airmiles that I only got for the coupons in them really. But I think they're all done now...

I have subscriptions to Today's Parent and Entertainment Weekly. I'll read any of the gossip magazines if they are given to me but I won't pay for them.

- Buddy are you currently reading anything at the moment, if so what is it?

No, other than as already said, my son's communication book from school

- Does your kitchen have a theme? Are there any particular kitchen gadgets/items you are looking for?

I wish, renting I cant do nearly what i would like to do in a kitchen! My dream kitchen would be stainless steel appliances, granite, and a focal red brick wall with built in oven! Unfortunately not getting that anytime soon!

-What are your top 3 gifts under $5? Under $10?

Top 3 under $5.... Grocery List note pads( really looking for ones with groceries listed than you just check things off not regular magnetic lists), Anything Timmies!!!, straight Chocolate brown colour or black shelf liners (for a 60 yr old china cabinet i just inherited)

Top 3 under $10.... Folgers Carmel K-cups, Glee Cd (Season 4 vol.1 only one I still need), any Campbells Cookbooks (I collect the Campbells books)

- do you consider yourself a fashionista?
not really, My moto is "dont like what you see dont look!"

- do you prefer modern or old fashioned?
a little of both

- Buddy if you had $25 to spend solely on yourself what would you buy?

thats a tough one seeing I so rarely spend anything on myself! Heck i bought a new pair of capri's this afternoon and I feel like I spoiled myself!!!!

- question buddy do you read magazines? which ones? do you already have a subscription to one? if so which one?

Sometimes. We have Entertainment weekly available at all times so I sometimes talk a peek through those. I currently subscribe to Todays Parent. Used to have Canadian Living but my subscription ran out!

I was stalking the Xmas in July thread and thought of something I'd like to add to my WL
I'd love some Chai tea!!! I've had it at coffee shops before but never bought any to make at home - don't know if they have k-cups for it but if they do those would be awesome, otherwise bagged is perfect.
