But rather than giving in to her impulse to spend and acquire, Sarah spent a year painting the objects she wanted to buy instead.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBased on a visual essay that was first published on\u003ci\u003e The Hairpin, A Bunch of Pretty Things I Did Not Buy\u003c\/i\u003e is a beautiful and witty take on the growing “slow shopping” movement. Sarah is a well-known blogger and illustrator, and she writes brilliantly without preaching or guilt-tripping. Whether she’s trying to justify the purchase of yet another particleboard IKEA home furnishing, debating the pros and cons of leg warmers or calculating the per-day usage cost of big-ticket items, Sarah’s poignant musings will resonate with any reader who’s ever been susceptible to an impulse buy.","brand":"Penguin Publishing Group","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47107194093808,"sku":"9780698182493","price":4.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780698182493_p0.jpg?v=1763614630","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780698182493","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
