How often do you get the urge to buy something costly that wasn't at all necessary for you to have?

Quite a bit, of course what's costly to me probably isn't for everyone else because most people have more permanent work than I do.

Not on a lark. When I'm out and about, I don't see something and HAVE to have it. But when I'm at home and the thought of buying something frivolous enters my head....it's happening.

As long as I avoid any electronic store or a store that sells DVD's I will be good.

Re: Impulse buys
To buy something costly and unnecessary on the spur of the moment? Not very often. I don't buy anything costly on impulse whether I need it or not. I've been known to pick up a shiny trinket that I didn't come into the store for in the first place every now and then.

I probably get that urge about one time per year.

I can be cheap, so I don't impulse buy very often. At least not anything too expensive. A pair of shoes, an outfit.....okay......but not a car or new t.v. or anything like that.

Not often. If I do, then it was something I was planning on buying for a while and finally cleared room in my budget for it. It's not common for me to blow money on things I don't need just for the sake of having at that moment.
