lack of self control

Do you often go gaga when you see items on sale, like make-up, eyelashes, lipstick, dresses, wallets, BAGS and SHOES, all with 40-70% discounts? I do, I surely have to buy 2 to 3 items when i get to their shops. I dunno why I go crazy over on-sale items, I don't certainly need them because I have a lot crowding in my closet already. I know I can't use them all at once, and I only go out (as in literally go shopping and grocery) once a week. I don't dress up for work because I think i'd be overdressed.

Yes, I got my bonus last week, and as expected, I spent all of it. When I got home, I told myself, WHY ON EARTH DID I BUY THESE THINGS??! I should've save them in my bank, or used them for other more important things. Well, too late because it's no return, no exchange. I could only stare at them now, and feel sorry for myself for not thinking before buying. In good contrast with the emotions I felt when I bought those things : HAPPINESS and SATISFACTION.

I dunno why i'm so self-indulgent, I buy what I want, when I want it. I know it's very wrong but I just can't stop myself when I get hold of money. I always think, I only spent bonuses, not the house and food budget. But still, it's not good and not right. I'm old now so I should've known better.

Lacking self control is my main problem, I don't know what I should do with it. I don't know if I can help myself because when I see these things ON SALE...






self indulgence is in control.

    theory: saving up most of my money
    reality: spending it all on clothes/bags/shoes/useless stuff
