I've bought quite a few workouts due to FOMO, but that's been a while. Lately I've been able to resist acquiring the new "it" workouts and focused on buying what works for me. Plus, I've been doing a lot more youtube workouts so I don't feel like I'm missing much as there is so much free stuff available.

Surprisingly I have not been tempted by Tracie's sale. I have so many of her workouts already and I'm thinking are her new workouts THAT much different? So, I can live without them!

Because of this thread I went and looked at the DVDs Lauren Brooks still has available. I have most of her DVDs, haven't used them in a while, not sure when I'm going to be able to use them (I broke a bone in my hand in May and I'm still doing at home PT exercises), but still had to look. Haven't bought any so far.

The other day someone posted a Barre DVD sale for $2, I haven't been interested on those DVDs, but still have to check it out, I not even remember what site it was lol, anyways shipping to Canada was $27 for one DVD, so I let it pass, but, I was tempted before that.

I have. For me, it's about purchasing some older videos that are out print. I've purchased several used Leslie videos. I also purchased backup copies of some of my favorite Firm BSS3 and BSS4 workouts.

Jillian Michaels' Body Revolution.

I don't mesh with Jillian's style. I like Mirabai Holland, Leslie Sansone, Margaret Richard, and Miranda Esmonde-White. I exercise a while, backslide into a work/life/stress slump, and start back all over again.

I saw that Body Revolution supplies were dwindling (at least I thought). I saw a great deal when someone had "just three sets left." And I bought it. I felt all tingly knowing I would have this awesome program to makeover my body. Just to think, I'd almost missed out!

If I'm honest, I'll never do this set. I probably won't even view the discs past month one. But the reviews were so positive and I allowed myself to fantasize about a different "me." I just had to have it!

Sometimes FOMO works out. I purchased the FitPrimes and nearly every Margaret Richard (one still eludes me!) when they were downsizing their dvd inventory. I also bought every chaptered Fitness Favorites Firm when they had an amazing sale. At the time, I had never done a Margaret Richard dvd or FitPrime. They were always financially out of reach. Well, they have been worth every penny!
