can't stop impulsive buying

I often find myself spending money in a pointless way. I see something I like, I get it, I feel fulfilled, then never care for it ever again... and feel like an idiot. I constantly keep buying things out of impulse. There are times when I can control myself, but then I just fall back into it again. Do you have this problem?

No I don't have problem with impulsive buying, I use to do that but, I no longer do this any more because, I got tired of being broke all the time, after I spent up all of my money, so now I am careful how I spend my money.

Hi catchpazuzu,it actually relives me to know that am not the only one with this bad habit.Anytime i go out and see something i like,i gotta get it no matter what.Nowadays i opt going out with little cash to limit my behavior.

Hi there Catchpazuzu! This is one of my weaknesses as well. The thing is that I do not have much money to waste as I have more important thins to spend it on like my son's tuition fee, the bills, and stuff. What I do is that I leave the money handling concerns to my husband since he is very thrifty and practical when it comes to spending. It is a good thing because if it will be up to me, we probably would not have any savings at all.
