Typing and writing practice

TODAY:
Do you think it is easy to spend too much in the US?  What are good ways to avoid spending too much?
Here are some of my ideas:

I love shopping for clothes. Sometimes, when I have been shopping a lot, I give myself a "mall break."  I don't go to the mall.  Instead, I take a walk or call a friend. I tell myself I need to wait at least two weeks before I go to the mall. Also, I stop and take a look in my closet and drawers, and try to find something that I haven't worn for a long time. That is a good way to remind myself about how much I ALREADY HAVE!
Another way I avoid overspending is to only buy things on sale.  If I see something I like, I know that if I wait, it will usually go on sale later.

TYPE at least one paragraph from the "Spending too much" story on your blog.
