My method of combating it is this: if the item I want to buy is "expensive", say $50 or more, I mark it down on the calendar and wait a month. If I still want it in a month, I'll get it.  Probably 95% of the time I'll be like "what the hell did I want that for?" and not get it.  So far so good. &lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">randy</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 15 Jan 2009 10:26:53 -0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
