Some totally make sense to me. Others, not so much. Some things just can't wait, but I do appreciate these tips, so I know when is the best time to buy some of these things!

I joked in the list that you could do what I do, which is thrifting. I'm obsessed. I also search high and low for discount stores anywhere I go.

If you are considering some spring cleaning and you know you're really itching for that new set of clubs, ready for a new car, or want to splurge on workout gear, you could always make money off your stuff.

Throw it up on Facebook, bring it to a consignment shop, trade in for a new model, or donate to get coupons. Then you won't feel so bad spending a little extra cash this month.
