Hi all on this late Thursday evening! I’m very late to write my blog post for today, but better late than never. Today’s prompt for #Blogtober20 is “All That She Wants”. For this topic, I’m going to list some products I’ve been oohing and aahing at but haven’t bought (yet).
1. An Apple Watch. Okay, I just ordered a Fitbit Inspire 2, so I cannot say I need the Apple Watch for the fitness tracking capabilities anymore. However, before I finally decided to order the Fitbit, I had been gazing at the Apple Watch. What kept me from buying it, is the fact that it’s incredibly expensive. I also was held back by the fact that the watch’s wristband contains a small amount of nickel. In fact, that’s what kept me from buying any fitness tracker until now. I know, the Fitbit wristbands contain nickel too, but I’ve decided to just take the risk and maybe nail polish the wristband clasp. The Fitbit costs €99,95, whereas the Apple Watch is over €400.
2. Airpods Pro. Yeah, I’m an Apple product fan. I already have bluetooth headphones with noise canceling, but mine don’t work with Siri and I can never be sure whether I have noise canceling on or off. Airpods, being in-ear, are also much easier to wear while lying down. I may purchase those next month or maybe I’ll wait till I’ve saved some money at the end of the year.
3. The advent calendar from The Body Shop. This is a less expensive product – the ultimate one costs €130 and the regular one is €50. However, I still think it’s a bit of an unnecessary purchase, so I’d rather just look without buying.
4. A writing course. I did at one point look at Writer’s Digest and Writers Write. Both have pretty cool courses, but they’re priced at like €300 each. Similarly, I’ve always looked with delight at the International Association of Journal Writers (IAJW) coaching programs, but even if you’re a member (which I was for a while), they’re still pretty expensive.
What things are on your wishlist for when you have more money to spend?

Whenever I have money to spare, I usually spend it on Lego. There’s always a new Lego set I want to build.

That’s awesome! The iPhone SE is great, so when you do get the chance, I’d definitely recommend it.

When I have more money to spend, I’d want to purchase a new phone. Mine’s been through repairs and I’m having a hard time using it with all the lags.

That sounds like a wise way to spend your money when you have it. I got a new phone last June, so am hoping it will last at least two years.

I have seen the Body Shop advent calendar and quite fancy it myself. x

Well, I have an iPhone and wouldn’t likely have an Android phone anytime soon, so it’s logical that I’d want other Apple products. However, I tried a Macbook for a few months last year and didn’t like that one bit.
