I really try hard to use what I already have, so not typically much BUT I am an event-based buyer... for instances, I just got this cool 7 Gypsies wall thingy and I want to make something beautiful with my wedding pictures so I went to my LSS with an idea and theme in my head and picked out (a bunch) (too much really) stuff for it.
When my mojo was missing, I went crazy on the spending. I was spending more than $100 some months! Really bad. Really, really bad! So I've tried slowing down my spending. Spent about $50 last month and so far the same this month.
