Just because it's "on sale" doesn't mean you have to buy it.

Don't buy clothes for the life you wish you had.

 

Just because you like it doesn't mean you have to have it.

@chrystaltree Evidently you aren't a crafter!

Fabric is on sale!

Yarn is on sale!

Cardstock is on sale!

Vinyl is on sale!

Beads are on sale!

You have to have the supplies for those crafts you are going to do!

Some day.

Sometimes it is good to buy things on sale. For example if you need a new Winter coat, or Winter accessories, when they are marked down.

 

They're marked down already in many stores.

 

It's good to buy essentials on sale, but not things you don't really need just because they are on sale. I used to be guilty of that, but I'm reformed.

 

I do also think a classic high quality staple piece that you can wear for many years is a good sale purchase.
