The trick for me to reduce impulse buys is to see if I want to buy the thing 3 days in a row. If I kept thinking about buying the thing on the third day, I’ll buy it.
I do just about the same thing, but force myself to put an equal amount of money into long term savings before I actually buy it. If I’m not willing to spend twice the price on something, do I really need it?

Hey that’s smart, stealing this from you.
So what you’re saying is that I should get that $400 thermal camera, then…
I got a $250 one and it helped see where I had a water leak in the wall.
I too, ended up buying the power armor 18T after telling myself not to impulse buy a thermal camera phone for 3 days
