For this month;s column, had written on Pampering - and one of the topics covered was 'wants vs needs'. wish i'd had this example of yours to use then. :)Jandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17196460532320443618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27998068.post-51481607244474875672013-01-24T07:21:15.487-08:002013-01-24T07:21:15.487-08:00hahahaaa... talk about how difficult it can get .....hahahaaa... talk about how difficult it can get ... i can never get to that...

We also have a set of friends and family between whom a lot of exchange happens... only then do we set out to buy something that we don't have... but of course the occasional splurges tend to happen.Me!

I am going to use the rest of the clothes until June or even December until I get sick of them and give them away. And bring down the rest from the loft. It helped that I put away my credit card and stopped going to the mall too! Seriously if malls are removed from list of places to go, there are SO MANY places to go to! Try it. <br /><br />Good luck. Lean on this group whenever you want to!Cuckoohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13697563902061372977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27998068.post-1488989813405799172013-01-21T01:26:40.105-08:002013-01-21T01:26:40.105-08:00Well-begun atleast, aparna!!
