AHHT LAST - I've spent...

So... June is here and so are the sales!
What's good?



Well with shops opening their doors to the red bold -50% sign on the sales floor, I'm sure the excitement raised joyfully! I must admit, I did go out and spent but this time I managed to do it wisely. Couple years back I would have happily and without a second thought comped money to shop for goodies. None of them actually pleased me in the end (thinking about it) but this time it was achieved with money that I had purposely saved for the sales. Happy, Yes! Trouble? I oddly found myself returning most items.
With everyone shopping with excitement, it is very wise to shop with money you have solely saved rather than money you don't have. To my surprise, I spent way less than the budget I gave myself. When I mean, less... I'm talking less. 

This huge change showed and proved to me that I:
- Managed my money properly
- Shop for things which I really NEEDED rather than wanted 
- Asked myself if I have anything similar at home (which will most likely be a Yes and this directly helps me to put the item down if I do)
- Am still accountable of owning clothes with attached tags to them
- I spent way too much to come to the conclusion that the things I bought had no relevance to my needs, from previous shopping during the Sales

The list can go on, but this should be a guide to not do silly spending. With the remaining funds having it saved for the next upcoming sales would be a suggestion.
