Start there. If it's not clearly a no, repeat multiple times over several weeks and one can quickly learn when to spent time thinking about these things.

    Being an adult doesn't mean you're only entitled to buy stuff you need. Don't forget to treat yourself or others once in a while if you can afford it and it's something you really want.

    A neat trick is to wait ten minutes ... or walk away from something and go back to it later. If you truly need it, you'll still want it. If you didn't need it, you'll forget about it.
