Princess, I can say that I do buy a whole lot less since I started "sharing my confessions" on this thread. There are many times that I toss coupons, don't respond to sales emails, and stay away from the LQS to avoid temptation. Before this thread it was a free-for-all with the only justification that "I work hard and can afford it" and of course "I deserve it". I do a lot better thanks to this little group.
