Retail Therapy is where our time & money go
The Return Window Live! with Laurie Stone of Everything is Personal, because - duh - it is!
Live Thursday, Dec. 10 at 7:15 PM Central
The Return Window is what happens next: what we have to get rid of
Here’s what I don’t know: what Laurie is bringing. I never do — that’s the fun part. She’ll share her rejects and regrets, especially ones related to the Holidays. We can all relate.
Together, we’ll all find out what she thought they would do for her.
That’s The Return Window: how we deal with everything Substack told us we needed. And probably our parents.

Return Window: the rejects we wasted time and money on and now have to get rid of. Consider this a public service announcement to our future selves.
Final Sale: the shit we’re stuck with. No returns, no exchanges. Not even the annoying store credit that forces you to buy something else you don’t want. No matter how it came to be, we’re all paying for it. Lately, it’s mostly politics. You were warned.
Keepers: anything bringing us delight.
Join Radio, the receipts, Laurie and me to work our way through the regrets. You bring your commentary and cocktails.
When life stops making sense, we shop go live on Substack. More soon.
Holiday Budgets Stick to $20. So the Gift Shrinks.
Retailers are betting the season on $20. A $35 candle showed me what that doesn't buy.
Do you have better luck?
Holiday Flights Are a Fright. We’re Taking the Subaru.
Thanksgiving airfare is at a 10-year high. If you didn't book before Halloween, you might be packing the dog’s frozen food and driving, like we are.
Or are you staying home?
