Are you a spender or a saver?

When you get your hands on some cash, do you like to spend it or save it. I like to do a bit of both. If there is something I want, I will spend but if there is nothing that interests me, I will save. I do not purchase things just for the sake of it, I actually have to want it or need it. What about you? Are you a spender or a saver?

I'm a saver...I'll wait before buying anything and will shop around for the best deal.

Thats a bit like me. I will save for things I want. And when I have enough, I will check to see if there are any cheaper deals about. Saves me a lot overall.

I love to spend a lot but learnt the hard way to save as saving is important too.

That is true. It is always safer to pay with cash, that way you are only spending what you can afford. And now, with Christmas about, people are going to be spending like crazy. You can just imagine the smiles on the credit card companies, getting wider. Merry Christmas to you too.

Its good to spend but not too much. Careful you don;t get into any debt. Do you spend using credit card? If so, then if you are not careful, you could get in big trouble.

i am definitely a spender but i know if i have to save the money for a bill or something then i will save it. i have to also want it or need it to buy something.

Luckily for me, I am not at that stage yet, of paying bills. But that does not go to say that I spend every penny I get. I like to save for things I want.

I like to save. Which what I plan on doing with all my earnings from Mylot and the other programs that I'm working on. I do plan on using it for Christmas this year. I like to look around for the best prices. Which is why I love the internet. You can check out what places are having sales and what not. I like getting things at a cheap price.

I'm a bit of both. I have tendencies to really pinch the pennies, and then I have times when I'm a pretty big spender and I'll spend more than I intended. I'm really going to try and cut back on my spending though. I should make a budget. Take into account how much money I think I'll make in a month and then break that down into how much I want to save and how much I'll need to spend.
