Do you mostly purchase on sale or full price?

I’ve been a budgeter forever, even when I made good money. I always look for discounts or coupons/coupon codes or sales or used or refurbished stuff. Anyone else?

I buy on sale when I am able to. Sometimes I can’t because of no stock or a far store not worth gas and time.

I’m about the same. I always try looking for deals at grocery stores.

I buy most of my books and DVD’s used.

I buy nearly all my clothes from thrift shops. I score a lot of really nice name brand stuff too, like Tommy Hilfiger and Chaps shirts.

The only things I really splurge on are belts and shoes. It’s hard to find a good used belt, and I prefer American made belts.

And of course fresh kicks are nice. :slight_smile: :athletic_shoe:

I’ve gotten nice kicks from Nordstrom rack online, I got a pair of black and gum sole air force ones for like $45. Shoe palace and shoebacca have deals. I also recently got my first name brand watch, a Nixon time teller for over 50% off on ebay. Yay deals. And thrift shop flannels are top notch.

Man 45 bucks is a steal for a pair af ones! Those are usually a hundred bucks at Foot Locker.

I wear pretty much all Timex watches. They’re reliable, look great, and don’t make ya break the bank.

Good lookin out though for your Nixon watch. :+1:

I’m pretty frugal but certain things I won’t go cheap. I like what I like and will pay the extra for it.

I used to be a used-only kind of person, but I’ve been buying a lot of things on Amazon. Little things. Odds and ends.

I did buy my computer new though, same place. Want it to last.

I guess I’m not such a utilitarian anymore. Consumerism is OK to me.

Normally try to buy on sale, wholesale, or gently used. Only ever bought a car brand new once, never doing that again. I like to poach them when they’re a year old now.

I’ve always been a deal shopper and usually find good ones. My last winter coat was from Yonkers going out of business. I found a $280 coat for about $50. It had a beautiful fur trimmed hood, I ruined by washing the coat. I couldn’t afford to dry clean. I should have dry cleaned the fur trim, which was detachable. It’s pretty much ragged now and I need a new coat.

Most of the time I look for sales and bargains. Why pay full price when you can get it for less.

I’m always looking for cheap clothes. I don’t care what other people think about it. I noticed that when we got out stimulus checks some people spend money just to be spending money. There is too much good stuff I can buy cheap for me to do that. I do tip, though.

I found a pretty good trick in supermarkets, if things are on sale with long expiry dates, just get like half a years worth of what you need. Even if you only save £5, it all adds up.

I used to waste money. Now, I’m frugal. Love discounts.
