Question: what questions should you ask yourself when evaluating a purchase?
Answer: Can I afford this? ...  Do I need this? ...  Do I have something similar, can I borrow or buy it second hand? ...  Do I love it? ...  Does it suit my needs at this moment? ...  Will I get a lot of use out of this item? ...  If the item was full price would I still buy it? ...  Is this an impulse decision?
