New UO - I don’t like sleeping with a top sheet. I prefer just the duvet I don't either! I don't even put the top sheet on the bed anymore. Same! I stopped using it 2 weeks ago and I feel so free. I don’t even know why I held onto it for so long

There's definitely a lot of options, but they frequently don't go on sale as frequently - or as cheaply - as standard sizes, and are sometimes more difficult to track down in a variety of options. So for those who have Old navy/target/ross sale budgets, even those "sales" aren't that good. But that is what I am speaking to, I am finding cheaper than ON clothes sales. Now more than ever.
Mia did the $-$$ thing so I meant lower cost.
where are you shopping/seeing these sales? Genuinely asking, as I have not been super pleased with my shopping experiences lately, with the exception of these magic celebrity pink jeans I finally bought. I should have bought them in every color like I had initially wanted to, and now they are full price again.

I usually do, until I'm the one buying. 😁 I know I need to start looking because mine is...quite old, and I am loathing it.

do I have to go back to read the consensus on this? Bc I love a $100 rec when I can spend $400. I might still spend $400, but more options are better! To be quite honest, I may need to go back and read too because I forgot what I’m arguing. Something about low cost. And how I’m making it sound like a bad thing. I don’t know contradict yourself with pride, GA! I do it all the time!

Obviously. No one is disputing that. The originally example was a less than $100 purse when the budget was $300-$400. IIRC McBenny asked if suggesting a less than $100 purse was unreasonable. do I have to go back to read the consensus on this? Bc I love a $100 rec when I can spend $400. I might still spend $400, but more options are better!... and then we can buy multiples! Or more colors!

Uo: I really really really don’t like talking parenting in real life or here. Mostly I could handle my Bmb when I was pregnant because I was mostly whining about all of it. But once kid was born I wanted to keep talking about myself, but it was threads upon threads of kid talk, parenting. And that stuff bores me to death. I love my kid, but I can’t talk about her all the time. Moty Our friends with babies are much more serious about babies so I feel like most of their time is spent fawning over their babies when we go out and it kind of bums me out. I would even rather TALK about kids the whole time.

New UO - I don’t like sleeping with a top sheet. I prefer just the duvet top sheets only come into play in the summer when our air conditioner is broken. Otherwise, they sit in a pile for DS to build couch forts from. Yes I should amend that statement since I only use a top sheet in the summer since no AC.

I have different comforters for summer and winter and that works well as we also sleep with only duvets. And huge square pillows but I never really adapted to that so we also have American sized pillows. I also already have my heating blanket on the bed because I like it to be like an oven when I get in and stare at my phone before going to bed.

For the no top sheet folks, do you wash your duvet every week? I can't commit myself to washing the duvet cover more than once a month. Stuffing that thing is not high only my list of things I want to do weekly.

If I go out with the girls, I don't want to talk about kids. We could have done that shit on the phone.

I go out with my friends from college and they always want me to bring S or chat about her. I’m like, “I came here to take shots, please spare me for a moment”. This. If I can bring my children, chances are I don't want to go. We were just invited to a friend's house to celebrate his wife's birthday and he was "bring the kids". Umm, no thanks. Yup, especially if they don't have kids themselves, because they usually just want to ooh and ahh over my kid for 15 minutes and then get annoyed when my toddler starts being, you know, a toddler.

I only sleep with a top sheet. No blankets ever? I keep one folded and ready at the foot of my bed but I usually don’t need it. Once winter time rolls around, but it’s just a thin throw blanket. This probably won’t make sense but I keep it fairly mild in the house now. 77-79 degrees because I don’t want my daughter getting to cold. She doesn’t sleep with blankets and I feel like her room gets a bit chilly if I go below 77. So I usually sweat through the night for her sake.

Literally the first thing I do upon arriving in any hotel room. edit - and also sometimes internally squeal with glee if we were accidentally given a room with two queen beds for me and H instead of a king. STARFISH TIME.

I will splurge on shoes though. Splurge in relation to my finances. I love a good comfortable shoe. Same with C I’ll buy her “good shoes” So her footies are comfortable and last a while.

64 degrees or colder. No top sheet EVER. Fleece blanket always. H has his own blanket so I don't have to share.

I got so sick of stuffing duvets, so I moved to a comforter. I can’t wash that thing weekly. I sleep with a top sheet, blanket and comforter year round. The house is always 67 at night and I’m always blowing a fan directly into my face so I don’t change with seasons.
