I think it is natural to want to buy certain things, especially when I'm out with my parents who have money and will buy whatever they want or with my friends who don't have money but do have credit and don't think about the consequences.

I have always trained myself to wait for whatever I want, even if soemthing's on sale it'll be on sale again and if it isn't I'll buy it when I have the money if I REALLY want it enough.

I have so many other challenges that I see everything in relation to them. for example, if it's food or clothing I think about the fact that I want to lose weight so do I want to harm that by eating something other than my set meals and do I want to buy an item of clothing that won't fit me in a little while.

Sometimes it is difficult but it's true that I really appreciate things if I don't have them as often, I enjoy every mouthful of a "treat" food when I go to starbucks and things like that. The main challenge for me would be to just go and buy something without thinking! LOL .
