Agonize over the choices every week myself.

Friday schedule:
- Check the FOTW first thing on arriving at work (Ok... too early)
- Check again an hour later (Please?... )
- Show extreme restraint and wait to check at lunchtime (Yeah! They're up!)
- Discuss the F(s)OTW all afternoon with vaping co-workers
- At home, analyze remaining space in the humidor filled with TV juice
- Check bank account
- Logon to read numerous juice reviews (drooling now!)
- Check e-cig expense spreadsheet to verify savings vs purchases
- Discuss purchase justifications with 18yr son, who stars at (through) me with iPod attached and eventually says "What?"
- Check FOTW again to see if anythings changed
- Pick up credit card that son retrieved on his own so I won't repeat above justifications
- Fill cart with must have FOTW item(s)
- Casually peruse site to ensure I have everything I need
- Add another flavor that I've been dying to try to the cart
- Add another flavor that I'm running out of to the cart
- Add some extra attys... bottles... etc... to the cart
- Review cart items
- Check bank account again
- Checkout cart contents
- Congratulate myself on being a smart shopper
- Begin planning postal stakeout......

LOL I couldn't stop laughing as I have a routine that mimics the ritual of placing a TV Order. I also seem to always check on Thursday to see if he does a early bird special... that of course he has never done before.

While I don't check the bank account as often as you do (the question is "how much" not "if" I'll be transferring from savings to checking when the credit card bill arrives), I do add a few steps:

- Check the subtotal before the shipping charge
- If it is $70 or more, go through the entire website for $30 of things I swore I wouldn't buy this week
- Add them to my cart
- When the discount kicks in, congratulate myself for getting $30 of things I wasn't going to buy for only $20.
- Submit order

Yep, getting 3 of them, not all 4 because I just got Pina Colada 2 weeks ago. Oh, and I gotta try Earl Gray, so I guess that's 4 FOTW. Good times. :toast:

Wish I could get into the earl tea, I havn't tried it but I am just not a big tea fan unless it is Camomile, Ginger & Orange or some kinda relaxing herb tea, I love that in the evenings with a shot of honey

Ahhhh but you see I have a teenaged sized black hole into which my money disappears on a regular basis, especially with college around the corner and dorm supplies to be had.

Ummmm.... Just broke down and ordered a bunch yesterday when the Earl Grey notice went up. Still I've been wanting try to both Almond Horn and Pina Colada.... BRB... Have to run some numbers (again)....
