Dear Charlie: it's OK, you are not alone

David

Admit it, your announcement of a 3-month poster no-buy has been a failure, in that time and by your own admission you have purchased at least 5 posters.

But don't hang your head in shame such failure should be celebrated, it's not like you're alone, today is: International Failure Day where one can recognise personal and professional failures, but without the guilt and shame that many experience.

So Charlie, congratulations on being a fully paid up, card carrying member - other forum members may step forward and also admit their failures today, safe in the knowledge that the rest of us will support them and not ridicule or laugh and point fingers at them.

David, you've showed great leadership as one of the site administrators by showing, pointing out, placing a spotlight on Charlie's purchasing of posters during his self imposed buying sabbatical. 

That said, I must confess that I recently made a major purchase and told myself, no more paper for the rest of the year! ...and then came along Bonzo. I mean heck, why not buy just one more item to combine shipping! I shouldn't have though, but I was weak. I too failed...

I will not buy again till 2016! ....

....doesn't EMP have some one sheets closing tomorrow night?...

Yep there is a nice Roman Holiday and Cool Hand Luke... I will not succumb to temptation!!!

The most hilarious thing about the whole deal is even though I've only bought 5 posters... I've bought a washing machine, new touch screen computer, 3 tennis rackets, new Wilson tennis shoes, a new 3 wood, two new shafts, and a swing weight scale.

Well those are all necessary items that could need replacing!

...Great Escape is nice too...

So sorry that I contributed to your failure Charlie.  I hang my head in shame at being an accomplice.
