It sounds like you have a small problem with impulse-buying! My Advise: Keep away from stores if you have money with unless there`s something you vitally need! Before you buy anything think through, do you NEED this? If it`s something expensive, or at least moderatly over-priced, don`t buy it, look around first!

it's probably one or a combination of the following:
1. you don't work enough hours so your checks are small
2. your hourly wage is low so your checks are small
3. you don't have a realistic budget
4. you are living beyond your means
