After having a yard sale last weekend and watching thousands of dollars worth of items go for next to nothing, my new mantra is "how much can I recoup in a yard sale." The answer is almost always NOTHING! It makes me stop and think about how much that new blouse/toy/gadget is REALLY worth! I have a new “tool” for my frugal reflex!

I'll keep good note of it. Gates, you should have been a psychologist, not an engineer :wink: In French, there is an old sayings that goes like this: You can not have the butter and the money from the butter. However, I would like to keep the butter but also make the money I would get by selling the butter. In other words; I want it all :twisted: The problem is that I don't see why I would not get everything. So I have to stop spending then I can save more. On the other side, I am trying to develop this state of mind where I need less. I might be able to reach a balance :-) MDJ, Kris, these are pretty good trick to control yourself.
