Of course I see tons of stuff I like\/love\/want. But I have to separate what I do from how and when I shop. Otherwise it could be very detrimental to my wallet! But I do believe it is important to treat yourself every now and then. So I use general shopping advice &#8211; if I see something I like, I wait a few days or weeks to see if I&#8217;m still coveting it. Then I know it&#8217;s worth the buy.<\/p>\n<p>Recently I was coveting these Bottega Veneta Three-tone patent &amp; leather sandals. Badly! And while they were marked down 40% off the original price, I still couldn&#8217;t justify buying them. So I waited. And waited. And a few weeks later they were marked down 65% and I snagged the last pair in my size! I call them my &#8216;affordable little luxuries&#8217; &#8211; a reasonably priced treat to myself!<\/p>\n<p>So, tell me &#8211; how do you indulge yourself while saving money?
