Another reason to break the Facebook habit

I need to join Facebook Anonymous. There has to be a 12 step program for this, right? Why is it so addicting? For me, it's not just the ability to be nosy (it is basically the modern day version of peeking over your next door neighbor's fence), though I do love the play-by-play of my long lost "friends" from elementary school's vacations. Oh no, I have found a way better reason to stay on Facebook: children's clothing sales.

This is dangerous, y'all. There you are killing time waiting in line at the grocery store when up on your screen pops the most adorable picture of a sun-kissed towhead on the beach at sunset wearing an adorable smocked outfit. And it can be yours with a quick comment. Yikes.

And Exhibit B (purchased in a waiting room via Smockadot Kids)

Please tell me I am not the only one bankrupting our family one outfit at a time on Facebook! The husband and I agreed that I could have a "baby budget" every month (really it's the only way that I'll stay halfway disciplined) and I've already spent it. It's just too easy! I know that I could unlike these pages, but why? And while I really shouldn't add more of these sites to my "news" feed (the latest in smocked goodness ranks right up there with international politics, I tell you), if you happen to know of more, I am all ears...
