Have you ever told yourself you were going to save up for a product and then just went and bought it anyway?

Ahhh, most of the time I try to save up, but sometimes I'm just like...but I can't wait anymore! I get too excited and I just go for it. Oops!

I never spend money that I need, but I did intend to wait until December to buy the Njoy Eleven, then bought it anyway... I had the money, but I was going to use it for another "fun thing".

Same here. I only consider it to be a saving up purchase when it's $100 or more.

I have. Right after I decided to save up, the item went on sale, so I jumped on the deal. I've had that happen a few times.

I can't afford to splurge on the Eleven, so I am saving points, giftcards and hoping for the day that it becomes more in reach (less than $100 out of pocket). I don't really have the choice but to save if I want it!

I have enough points to get one of the items that I want... but I'm halfway to another one... just have to decide which one I want more... decisions decisions decisions....

The wife and I did the same thing. We live in Atlanta where the Factory is and they have a store you can go to. So we went one day to look, and I was the one going "we'll wait and save up" and the wife just went for it. Best impulse buy we've made in a long time!

I save up for items via points since I can't afford it otherwise. I'm actually doing so right now for a couple items on my wishlist that are on sale. :3 It should take 10 more days to have enough if things go well.

It just depends on what it is and how much more money/points I need to add.

It's what we say "Impulse" and it happens to most of us. If we can have it now ... why not ?

It really does depend on the product, there are a few that I've been saving up for for a while now, but then something else more fantastical just catches my attention and I spend it all on that instead.

Yes all the time! I also find that the promotions influence when I make purchases.

I usually save up, until something excellent goes on sale. But eventhen, i just kick points into high gear.

This is an excellent question! Personally, if I get really excited about something, and then it goes on sale or Eden is doing one of their specials, I will get it regardless of points. I always justify this by saying "I can earn points by getting it now!" haha
