Do you buy things because they are cheap even if you don't need them?

Hi velentina, I will buy it if I know that I will use this stuff in near future. Or I always used it. It is a good bargain especially during this current economy situation. There are a lot of thing that we don't want to use now but we always need it at a time or another. It is good to have a stock of this stuff so we don't need to run here and there looking for it if we need it. But if I didn't know when I want to use that stuff, I won't buy it. Even though they are cheap. I am afraid they will be land at the trash bin later. And that is a waste of money. We can't afford to loss some money for nothing in current recession situation. We should spend wisely. Happy mylotting and have a nice day.

No, I don't do that. Seems i have enough to buy that i need. I use to tease my mother that she would buy things at the grocery that were on sale whether she liked it or not. She always said somebody would eat it.

I've stopped buying things unless they are carefully planned out purchases. So I will save up until I can buy something good, otherwise I will borrow off of friends or relatives until I can afford the item in question. Fortunately, right now, my friends and I are all discovering we have too much stuff, so we are happy to share if one of us needs an item.

i used to do that but certainly not anymore just because i cannot afford a whole lot of money to spend on anything. i still like to look at sales but have to be very careful when spending money these days.

Ugh, I find myself doing the same thing! I usually end up using the item I buy but sometimes I don't. I really need to stop wasting the money. Yes, it is a good price but if you're not going to use it, it's like flushing money down the drain. Maybe we can trade our unused items? :)

i buy things that i need --- things that i can afford but i dont go for the expensive ones, i can buy many shirts with the price of the expensive shirt... i prefer good quality but with less expensive price so i dont go out of my budget.

Sometimes if something is cheap it is of low quality, which means it won't last long and you have to quickly replace it, and that is definitely a waste of money, if you want something it should last and so you get what you pay for, even if you pay a small amount of money for something if it doesn't last long you end up paying more keep replacing it!

I am the worst for this! If i see something and its a great deal i feel like i have to buy it, even if it wasnt something i wanted or needed in the first place it just seems wrong not to buy something when its such a great price and then i totally regret it later when i realize its something im never going to use and i usually end up taking it back or if i cant i give it away. I think its much better to buy i higher priced item you actually want and/or need than buy a bunch of cheap stuff that you bought only because its cheap! Something i definetly try to work on.

Yes, I am a impulsive buyer, and I am always a sucker for the discounted goods, and whenever I see a discount sale sign, I always enter and invariably I make a purchase.Since you always have the credit card in the pocket, it is always easy to buy things. Of course after some time I always regret the purchases, but it stays for only a few days, and I am back to square one.

If the price is outrageously cheap, I'll always convince myself I'll find use for the product sometime in the future and end up buying it to sit in my house. Sometimes it does becomes useful and sometimes not but if it is a great deal, I'll buy it anyways

I don't buy anything unless I have a use for it. I keep myself on a strict budget and if I cannot use it or have no idea what it is for I will not buy it. It always helps to have a plan on shopping. I know what I need and I know where I am going to get it. This way I do not waste my money.

Hi and smile. Now i am trying to spend money wisely, i do like to buy things at reasonable price but if i dont need them yet i wont waste my money for them. Its good to save nowadays. We dont know what will happen to our economy later. Happy mylotting and smile always!

I will buy things mostly when I have a coupon and stock up even though I might not need the item at the time.
