Impulse, smulpulse...Wow, try saying that with a mouthful of chocolate...

OK, impulse buying really sucks. Top = nice. Top = spent all my money. Nothing wrong with a little impulse buy here and there. In fact, it rocks. But, um, having no money doesn't. So, tips. Tips, tips, tips for everyone!

• Have a little money set by, so you'll always have money if you, uh, need it. Oooh, those shoes are pretty!
• Just wait a day. It will still be there. Trust me. But you might not want it.
• OK, why the heck are you buying it? 'Cause it's cheap? Cool? You don't know? Just think of one thing you could use it for.
• If you can't, DO NOT BUY IT. And I did need those giant paper clips, nosey.
