I love that cup, and the makeup!! I wish I could find shit that cheap!! I love Hard Candy stuff too. I would be stoked to find that in a dollar store! As for Fifty Shades...I didnt mind the first book, i mean it was one of the first d/s books I ever read, so that compelled me to read more and I actually did read the whole series, but I def like the first book the best..only because I like Christians pushiness and how she is so naive...and I love the build up, the chase..I dunno, maybe its just me. You will have to let me know what you think once your done.
I HAVE THAT CUP!! My step-mom's mom bought it for me at some store in Shreveport, LA for $3. As for the Goodwill stuff, I'm the exact same way. Mainly because, where I live, most of the items at our Goodwill still have the tags on them. Plus, I like to cut up and design my own shirts and shorts, so I'll usually go there and buy them instead of using a shirt I got at the mall or where ever, and not risk messing it up because I cut it wrong, ya know? Lol. Good luck on the book. I read it, but I wasn't a big fan of it. In fact, I found it quite boring, but that's just me! Haha.
My mom read the whole series and tried to get me to read it ha. I wouldn't touch the book with a ten foot pole; not my thing. But OMG I want that cup! It's quite badass!
I know what you mean with the previously-owned books, idk I think it's just a cool feeling thinking about how someone else already enjoyed the exact same book haha Idk I'm crazy ;D I hope to go running this weekend, and update my story tonight :D
