I hear ya!

I've always said that I work out so I can eat what I want - in moderation of course. What can I say, I like food! And diet really is a four-letter word.

Don't feel bad. I just ordered (and it's already in transit) Fusion Flow (which I already have) instead of Power Fusion. DUH.

Peggy and mtnmom, this made me LOL!

I have purchased 'Circuit Max' from Cathe twice. It was mentioned in a thread recently, and I thought 'Oh, there's a Cathe I don't have!' I almost bought it again! (Luckily I checked my emails and found reference to my two previous purchases.)

I read the tittle of your thread and told myself, "Join the club, we've got jackets!". Been there done that. I've even traded for DVDs I already own. Madness or addiction, same thing.

I've done this before too with Jillian's 30DS.....

I also have a cookbook addiction (3 shelves full). I haven't purchased any in quite some time because I use online resources a lot but I'm a real sucker for colorful photos of food.....

You might be on to something. I have probably 50+ cookbooks not to mention hundreds of newspaper or magazine recipes stuffed in several boxes!

i thought this was going to be about "i bought the exact same DVD twice because my collection is so immense."


i did that with a DVD recently. and the dumb thing was, i had opened BOTH of them, and therefore couldn't return them for a refund (because i didn't enjoy the workout when i finally got around to trying it!). and they were both "recently released" DVDs - not a situation where i had purchased something years ago, then re-bought it again thinking i didn't already have it.

Food Porn! Yes, I agree I love a good cookbook with wonderful photos. I bought some Paleo cookbooks and was upset that the photos, while colorful, were not yummy look. Kind of like renting a a good chic flick and finding out the leading man is kind of ugly.

I haven't bought something I already have, yet, but I have traded then rebought more times than I care to remember.

OMG, I call it Food Porn, too! Nothing like drooling over a centerfold of spinach swiss cheese quiche! LOL!!! My mom gets irritated with me when I get another cookbook. She says I need another cookbook like I need another <bodypart>.
