Buy Two Of Bargain Finds

RE: Buy Two Of Bargain Finds Post by pamphyila (115) | (02/16/2007) Blog! | Contact I suppose buying 2 at one time goes back to the theory of stockpiling - that is, if you can afford it - stocking up when you see a bargain - so you don't have to go back to buy it at full price. Of course, if the $ is really tight, you just get what you CAN afford at the moment - it's all a matter of where you are financially. I have a tendency to spend more when I am slightly flush and then have stores to fall back on when money is tight...and since I have always had a fluctuating income, this strategy has worked for me over the years. I am still wearing the 2 pairs of jeans I got on sale for $6 each at a Kohl's sale 2 years ago! RE: Buy Two Of Bargain Finds Post By Lynda (Guest Post) (02/16/2007) Why spend two dollars when you have only one? Also, when on such a tight budget, we cannot afford the first one, most of the time, and are thrilled to find ANYTHING extra that we can. For example, we had to wait until the very last minute sales for school and relative valentines, which were 90% off. If I had bought two of anything, I could have only had them and not the little single special silver heart for my grandson's mom. I also happened to find wooden cross keychains for .10 each ! Pennies make dollars, remember. Storing things is a really big problem here, since I have to store materials I find curbside in hopes of remodeling my old run down home one day soon in the early Spring.

I don't think it has to be something that's real cheap either....just something you really like....like a certain kind of shoes perhaps.

Thanks for reminding us, though.

Very important for strong sunlight such as in California--in fact, anywhere, summer or winter.
