FOMO: the vidiot version

[alisoncooks]

I recently had a vidiot moment of FOMO (fear of missing out). Tracie Long's email/newsletter mentioned another $10 sale. And despite the fact that I'd already acquired (and parted) with the Core Movements DVDs, I had that momentary thought of: I need to get these before they're unavailable.


So now I'm the proud owner of the Core Movements workouts (and 1 Metabolic Strength...) -- all of which are probably above my current ability.

What workout have you bought because of FOMO...?

I know, right? But I think this is different than our vidiot bandwagons. This purchase was prompted by the shift to streaming and the fear that the workouts won't be available soon (well, that and the good price...)

Yes, I get it -- I have bought so many videos thinking the price will go up or it'll sell out or something. I do not know why I would think that! The other day I saw that bargain site someone posted and saw so many videos there that I bought at probably at least near full price and now they are all about $3.99 or whatever. Oh well!

I have plenty of FOMO moments but luckily in other areas. I've owned, parted with, repurchased and (again) gotten rid of so many workouts over the years that I'm just not tempted any more. In fact I just donated over 300 workouts, and I won't be re-buying any.

I saw the Tracie Long sale, thought about it for a hot minute, then realized I'm not using her workouts I already own so, no.

This is me as well, I am rediscovering and enjoying my Firms again but the desire to reacquire more just isn't there any longer. I too, also looked at the Tracie Long $10 sale and no, I have one workout of hers that is in the donate/sell pile, I think I used it once. All the others I had I liked for a while but eventually just moved on. I prefer my Firms I guess.

I guess to answer the OPs question, it would be some of the Fitprime/Kickbutt DVDs before they were clearanced out. I had a handful, not tons and unloaded all of them. This sale, was a few years back now, I repurchased the handful that I had, only to get rid of them again. I prefer the compilation DVDs, but come to think of it, I really don't use those either.
