It depends on what the item/service is and if I've been wanting it for a while.

I've gotten a lot better at not buying impulsively since getting serious about my goals.  Not saying you aren't, but it helps to have a clear perspective of what you want your money to eventually do for you.

I am not an impulse buyer but my hubby sure is. He has bought so much stuff over the years, we hardly have any room left to walk in our house.

My son would say I am but I say I am not.  I mean not totally not LOL but not totally am either.  I don't really care either way I am 65 and if I don't buy things I want now when would I?

That is one thing I have never been. I have always had a list when I go shopping and stick to it. Now my sister is the world's  worst, in fact I refuse to go shopping with her  anymore. She has to  pick up, touch everything and may go back  to it again  before she is through shopping. I  want to go in get what I want and leave.  Not spend  three hours in a store and only buy 3 things.  You ought to  see what her closets look like. and every time she come she  comes down from Alaska she  brings 3  suitcases of clothes and goes home with 5. It gives me the heebeegeebees  in other words  I hate the feeling I get shopping with her.

No I am not.  Really like to research products especially when I am putting out big money.  I really think if I need it or not before purchasing.

I'm usually good at planning my purchases. I scope out things that I want to purchase in advance (usually weeks or months). I pull the trigger when I'm ready which is probably when a sale is going on.  :thumbsup:

This is the internet, learn to let people have opinions. And don't be so sensitive.  8)

Yes, I am an impulse buyer especially when it comes to my 2 year old grandson, Edison.
Have a wonderful day!

I have a family member that is like that.  She orders junk off the tv all the time.  She doesn't even have room to set anything else down in her house. lol  She needs to have a huge yard sale.  And a lot of the impulse stuff she bought off them infomercials she doesn't even like. So it just sits there.

I think that I am on the middle, I do not buy just to buy, but when I need something I do go and get it, regardless if I have the $$ or not
