I'm switching up my Monthly Haul posts a little bit this year, because I'm actually *trying* to stick to a bit of a budget! I've been going a little crazy on the beauty and books front, so I just want to be a little more thoughtful in my purchases. So. I'm trying to keep my beauty and book purchases to $200 a month - we'll see!
I do always love my Monthly Haul posts - it's a good way to keep track of everything that I picked up each month. I don't always blog about everything I pick up (I try to), but if you ever spot anything in here that you really want me to talk about, let me know!
I purchased everything in this post - this post contains a referral link
- this Books Between Friends ~ $14.00 CAN. This is one of my favourite used book store in Calgary - I found a few newer releases and an older title of mine (Rain) that my cover was completely missing, so I wanted a matching set! I'm excited to see how the other two are!
E Book Order ~ $2.63 CAN. I'm slowly trying to read all of TJR's older books - this one is a novella, but it is only available as an ebook, so I scooped it up at a great price and I'm excited to read it!
Amazon Book ~ $20.78 CAN. I picked up Get A Life, Chloe Brown - this was such a fun, romance and I really enjoyed it - you can see my full review on this on my reading wrap up here. I'm excited to read the other books for the Brown sisters!
Facebook Marketplace Book ~ $10.00 CAN. Again, another older Taylor Jenkins Reid book - this one was a good used find on Facebook and I'm excited to read this one as well!
Oden's Eye Order ~ $85.00 CAN. I was so excited when Angelica Nyqvist announced a collab with Oden's Eye - the Hela palette looks stunning and I thought I'd try a blush from the brand as well. I threw in a brush cleaner and got a free item, so I could get free shipping. The shipping was super weird, this landed in the province next to me, flew all the way to the East Coast and is now slowly making it's way back to Alberta, so hopefully I see it soon!! I can't wait to play with it!
Value Village Find ~ $4.00 CAN. Okay, this may seem super random but I was hoping for a teeny tiny straightener for my trip to Italy - I'm living out of a backpack so I need small small small and this one works, so I'm taking it (I need to straighten my bangs all the time because I have a bad cowlick!)
Facebook Auction Finds ~ $9.00 CAN. I found a few good books on a facebook auction - both of these have been on my TBR list and I can't wait to read both of them!
Bookoutlet Order ~ $26.91 CAN. I always order from Bookoutlet - I love finding books I want in my collection at reasonable prices. These are all discounted and brand new! I have read Malorie and The Dead and the Dark and enjoyed them, so love adding them to my collection and I'm slowly making my way through the Anne of Green Gables book, so this is number 3 and I'm loving this cover! If you are interested in saving $5 off your first book order of $25 or more, you can use my link here: https://bookoutlet.ca/loyalty/referral/xXCMDyB?c=url
ColourPop Order ~ $43.88 CAN. My one other makeup order this month is also not here yet - it's shipped and I'm awaiting it to arrive too! I decided to try out the Darth Vader palette and one of the new Glowy Lip formula as well! Can't wait to try these both out!
So I spent $216.20 for the whole month of February - I'm really happy I'm managing to stick to my budget so well for the first couple of months and hoping I can keep it up for the year (and beyond!)
