Immoral that is partly why our debt built up, we could justify any expense if it was for our children. However we are more sensible since our LBM.
No, I think probably all impulse buys are wrong. That is not to say I don't do it sometimes, but it is wrong and I shouldn't.Finally Debt Free After 34 Years, But Still Need to Live Frugally

Things you need rather than just want.
Personally, I always need really lovely and unusual plants for the garden.:DIt is never too late to become what you were always intended to be0 -
Things on sale.....I justify it by the fact they're cheaper, especially at work when I get another 20% off as staff discount. I usually come to my senses when I get home and take stuff back though lol....I like my coffee black, just like my metal!
