What is your recent ALCHEMY purchase?

\"The other things\" are also Alchemy or something else, scootiebee? Your mum sure will now remember to buy you Alchemy stuff for your next present.

yes, the other things are Alchemy, but I got tired of typing!

My mom will never remember, because she told me to order something for myself, and she would just pay for it. I think we both prefer this. That way I don't get things I just have to return anyway, and she doesn't have to spend a lot of time shopping for something I will return anyway.

But those two items I mentioned are what my mom actually paid for, the other things I had to pay for. I got a knife switch earring, and the high voltage toric generator ring. So if these are the things I like, and my mom keeps sending me starfish covered with swarovski crystals, we can see the problem. She tried to talk me into keeping the glittery starfish by telling me how many compliments she has received on them, but I had to gently explain that while I receive a multitude of compliments on my skeleton jewelry, that doesn't mean SHE would feel comfortable wearing it!

Starfish? really? :S I feel your pain. I would also return starfish earrings. :silly:
oh, and I see a bit of an steampunk thing going on.

yeah, the starfish were cute, if I were in to cute, they would be perfect. But I have been ogling the Empire collection things for a long time, and finally have an excuse to get some. I usually go more for the skeleton things myself, and had to resist getting the Curse of Ezekiel bracelet, but maybe I will get that next...

I'm more the bat type then the skeleton type, but I finally got the Mortum Hand Bracelet today. My eyes went wide when I saw that it was originally 200 HRK and I got it for 70! (I think the conversion is 1USD = 5HRK) I love sales.

Wow! I love sales too. That sounds like a great deal! I wish I had a local shop to buy from, once again. The online shop I use has never offered a sale, that I know of. Oh, well.
