Very occasionally I will spoil myself if I feel deserving or I have some 'birthday money' and will go up to the counter, no questions asked. I'm only just finding my feet in the working world so hopefully I will have more days of 'guilt free' spending ahead. There was one Coach purse I fell for. I needed a new purse, the compartments inside were just what I needed and it looked sophisticated and stylish enough to warrant the price tag but I couldn't bare to splurge the money on it :( Maybe some other day. .-= Nikki´s last blog ..<a href="http://citysoliloquy.wordpress.com/2010/03/11/sense-of-belonging/" rel="nofollow">Sense of Belonging</a> =-.

Life's way too short. If I really want it, I get it. I have started a "Is this something I must have" mantra though, because too often I get it because I "just like" it. And for the record, I think there are bags that are WAY better than Coach for the same price. Too many people buy them, so you see yourself coming and going too often...

If I see something that I think I really, really, REALLY want......I wait 72 hours. If I am still thinking about that item after 72 hours,, I will go back and get it for myself. I have found that to be a very effective way to avoid buyer's remorse.
