I have a breadmaker that I never use either. I plan to put it into my next garage sale.

But, it is a heavy loaf and very "yeasty". So, I would like a larger, lighter loaf with longer rise time.

Give the old-fashioned way a try, and if you don't like the process but still like the bread, then buy a breadmaker. I really like this set of instructions for breadmaking.
On topic, I'm working hard (struggling with) not making impulse purchases (mostly books). The instant gratification of hearing of a new book and immediately running out and dropping 20-30 dollars at the bookstore has a tendency to really put a crimp in the paying-off-CC-debt goal.

For me I would have to say a new car. I drive an old 89 Toyota Camry (it's running) and when ever I see my friends car or a nicer one I think I am debt free now I can afford a new car. But I am holding on strong stashing way some funds for when the time comes but it is a struggle

furniture!
3 years ago we sadly watched everything we owned wash away in a flood. We've had hand me downs ugly furniture ever since. We bought our first starter house and everything we have is just so ugly. It is so discouraging, but we own it. $200.00 more to go on our last credit card and we can start saving towards a bigger better home with new furniture (purchased with cash!

HDTV.
I would have to get rid of my current wall system which I adore. So between a new wall system and a 42" Sony Bravia LCD...it is just too much right $$ now.

Re: What Are You Struggling To Not Buy?
For the last couple of weeks I've been struggling to not buy groceries until the first of the month! Got.to.stay.out.of.the.store!!
So far, so good, haven't bought fresh groceries since 2/6. I did buy at the scratch n' dent store on the 21st, but it was all either canned or boxed goods, nothing fresh. This shopping on the 21st was actually a brain-fart as I FORGOT that I was trying not to shop! DUMB!
Trying to work myself up to a once-a-month mindset!

Well I have been struggling not to buy new clothes, but today I got a new pair of jeans. My first new pair in 5 years.

New clothes, because I know that I will need maternity clothes in a few months.
