Chibi Jeebs: $100 Challenge - The Etsy Edition

We are facing potentially tight times financially. Chebbar still hasn't been able to find work, and his EI runs out at the end of March. We're bracing ourselves for some major changes and looking at some tough options in order to accommodate his pursuit of a post-secondary education (and in the event this shit-ass recession doesn't spit out a job soon).

That being said, I've been overwhelmed with this feeling of feast or famine: I'm torn between scrimping and saving every. last. penny., and stocking up on stuff while we still have the money. Frankly, it's freaking me out. So! To take my mind off the Doom & Gloom - because lord KNOWS that the only time I want to spend frivolously is when I can't - I thought I'd indulge in a little virtual window shopping. HOWEVER. The challenge is to see how much I can find while staying under $100, so I'll have to be choosy.

Beaver Keychain: $10.95

Because, obviously. What? I'm Canadian, pervs.

Olivine Pearls Branch Bracelet: $20.95

Love the branch and leaf and that the little pink buds remind me of blooms.

Breezy Cherry Blossom Small Frame Purse: $8.00

I have all this... (important) crap in my purse that I try to cram into the little zippered inside pocket. One of these days, that poor zipper's going to rebel and BLOW. Something like this would at least keep all my junk together in one handy, dandy location instead of strewn about the bottom of my purse, just WAITING to spill everywhere.
