I have to need something for a very long time. I research it extensively for the best buy, but even then I make mysef wait. My husband says that I can make a penny cry because I pinch it so hard! I have some tops that are about 20 years old! I just feel that I need to keep socking my money into clothes and food for my little guys, and that I need to try to save whatever I can (which really is very little, because they always need something), even if the wires in my bras are poking the heck out of me- lol.

i am a very practical person. i don't buy everything in sight and don't succumb to simple fancies and whims. i believe in saving for a rainy day than be a queen for a day and then suffer for the rest of the year! heck no. i would rather buy things that are essential to live a comfortable life. if and when i do decide to buy something special, it would mean that i really deserve it but it's only once in a blue moon. that's it.

I buy everything in sight that I really really want. Then I sell them when I am done with them on ebay. So, if I by a $200 one season and sell it two years later on Ebay, then I think to myself that I got a really nice sweater for 50% off, and it's no longer cluttering my closet when I've stopped wanting to wear it. It's alot of work but I'm happy. I bought a bunch of artwork that I wanted and ended up selling it for three times the price, so sometimes, I actually make money. In the end, I have a totally sweet rotating wardrobe that cost me about the same as people who deprive themselves. By the way, I always search for coupon codes and sales.

I don't buy every thing in sight. But if I need something, I get it. It's the 'wants' that I usually go without (cuz the kids come first).

I have what I need and do not suffer. But I do have many wants which are things I can live without but just WANT!

Well I am trying to save some money for a trip, so I tend to do without anything that is not really important. It's hard sometimes to walk away and convince myself that I can do without. Clothes are my downfall. And have recently dropped a few sizes so I really do need some new clothes.

I would love to but everything I like or even look at i cant buy it because i have to remember that I have to pay rent, water, electricty, and gas. Keep in mind I am only 17. my father hardly works and when he does work he doesnt use any of th money to pay bills with. so needless to say no I dont buy everything i see but apparently my father does!

I don't do either. I buy what I need, or do without, by choice.
