Saving must be a way of life. I’ve learned to resist the impulse purchase and stop and think before I purchase. I ask myself if I really need this thing, and also, if I do need it, let’s look for a way to find a discount on it.

  That’s a great way to think, Lorne. I still struggle sometimes with purchasing things we don’t need, but I’ve improved dramatically from a few years ago. Keep up the smart spending.
