but do you need?

Amazon makes us all want things, but we should ask ourselves if we actually need these things. Most times the answer is a flat no!

Just trying to help out a fellow impulse buyer. I found myself doing it quite often, and now I always ask myself the "need" question before I click 'buy now'.

My step dad would hear me say all this stuff, and out of concern mentioned this to my mom. She said, "Don't worry. She just talks things and doesn't do." My mom had my number. 😆

A young buddy at one of my grocery stores always reminds me: "Quit buying stuff!" A good coach.

I know exactly how you feel. I used to be one of the worst impulse buyers on the planet. I was finding things around the house that I had bought and never opened. That's when I knew it was time to get a grip on my buying practices.

We'll get it under control.

It's psychological. Me needing to fill a void perhaps. I justify it saying I'm stimulating the economy.

Now waiting for a delivery of Tom Ford's 'Lilac Nymph' lipstick that's been discontinued it seems. A small luxury. Still have half a tube from last year but wanted back-up. 😉
