I don't need it.... I don't need it... I NEED IT!

....Do you impulse buy? ...I do, honestly, but I hate admitting it. I pass it off as something I "need", but then I regret it later. Internet shopping has definitely made me a lot worse w/impulse purchasing.

Sometimes with merch yes. I tell myself 'no i should save' but then I find myself buying it because who knows what'll happen if i dont!!! i might not never get the chance again!!!

Never, I always buy with good thought behind it, never as an impulse.

which is why im always broke

i have.... impulse bought a lot of keyboard things over the past few months. whoops.

But they are so nice. So good looking. So nice to type on. Yes.

Noooo.. i'm far too paranoid with my money :((

Sometimes. Usually with food. :blush:

Nope, I have a mom and dad to stop me. I'm sure I would if I had my own job/source of money.
Also I have a tendency to hoard money.

I budget for my impulses lol,

I impulse buy food not on my list at the grocery store all the time. I try not to with anything else. Most of the time it works... mostly...

I was about to comment "I damn near impulse bought a keyboard the other day" so I'm glad it's not just me.

...this new keyboard, while I slept on it a day, was basically impulse too whoops

I do have a pretty bad impulse buy habit, yes. Tends to happen with whatever hobby I'm in a huge kick for enjoying. Most of last year it was every single one of anime plushes, anime figures, Pokemon plushes, Pokemon figures, and Pokemon cards.

Art mostly
Sometimes games
Never food :')

Sure you do... :shifty-eyed: If I go into a place with a specific goal in mind, I don't impulse buy. Yet if I just go somewhere and have no such parameters, I have no control or willpower whatsoever. Area where I have such issues is with food. Like if I'm hungry... I try to avoid Costco at all cost.... Otherwise I buy $100 of food before I even know it lol...

I wouldn't call them impulses because I mull them over and read hundreds of reviews before buying, but I splurge on skincare, makeup, clothes and games from time to time and I definitely don't need any of that

I think I impulse buy food often though, nothing crazy but if I'm grocery shopping I'll pull snacks and stuff into my cart on a whim and it kinda adds up

Yes I impulse buy a lot and sometimes it hurts my wallet, but other times not

yea i impulse buy. my wallet hates me

i'm terrible about this. i just bought a brand new ipad pro (well, exchanged my old one) just because i wanted the newer one lmao

Yeah and I'm fine with it. Realistically there's not much I can save up for after paying for my living expenses so I might as well piss the rest away on hedonistic desires.

Like several mentioned here, I also impulse buy on snacks and drinks too often. Around 2014-2016 I would also impulse buy on games, only to not play half of them yet oops.

Not that much. Have at times e.g. very cheap games for the Wii U which I still haven't played a bunch for, but nothing expensive and usually I try to do some research before buying anything I feel I'll need of significance. Snack sometimes I suppose if I am hungry or there's something I want to celebrate with a sweet or somesuch.

Usually not, though I sometimes get real tempted by in-app purchases in a very select few games I play, lol. But am still very good with saving! If I lived nearby more merch stores that may be a different story though...........
