I'm a selfish spender. I am very picky who gets my money. The givens like basic bills, I don't have much of a say but when it comes to my shopping I am in control. I look at value instead of prices. Value can be the look of being thrilled in my DGD's eyes for a much wanted present to the hand woven reed basket at Goodwill for $1 vs the same size cheap made in china basket for .25.
