Spending Abigail VanBuren said, "If we could sell our experiences for what they cost us, wed be millionaires." All of us make money mistakes the trick is not to overdo it! Do any of these spending personalities describe you? An impulsive buyer seldom comparison-shops. Tip: Leave the store. Nine times out of ten, you wont return for the item. A fanatical shopper spends excessive energy to save a few dollars. Remember time is money dont spend $50 of time to save $5. Perhaps you are an avoidance shopper, one who shops to escape. Instead try exercising or playing with your kids. A passive buyer dislikes shopping and doesnt comparison shop. You work hard for your money. Question salespeople about your potential purchases.
