    I mentioned Crocs in that thread. I love the shoes, so I'll pay up since they really don't get discounted.

    I'm a big Disney/Pixar CARS toy collector, so I willingly pay full retail for the newest ones (although technically they are discounted at the major retailers). I don't shop around for these on price.

    Napa Rose at the GCH. No discounts available there, not even if you've got an AP. But man-o-man, is it worth it. I'd pay even a little more to at there (but Disney, please don't rise the price!)

    I always pay full price for sushi--and by full price, I mean it has to be expensive. I don't trust cheap sushi.

    Gambling. I actually don't pay attention to the payouts at Bellagio because I just like being there. I know I'll have a better chance outside of the strip, too. However, I will never play 6/5 blackjack.

    An occasional piece of costume jewelry if I just fall in love with it. Earrings tend to be my most frequent impulse buy in the jewelry department.

    Pajamas. I'm really picky about them, so when I find a wonderful, comfy pair, I'll buy them on the spot.

    I just go into a mindset of "This is what I love to do the most so let's live large and deal with the bills later" when we go down there.

    Of course this same mentality is why #7 is on the way, and no I'm not talking about the physical act of how this circumstance occurs, I mean the wanting more of a good thing...more kids.

    I pay full price for my kids' education.
    You would think the school they go to would give a multiple sibling discount. pffffft nope.

    Outside of these two things, I try to find the best value for the money.

It has been worth every penny we have spent to have her in a safe learning environment and the good education she has been blessed to receive.

Thank goodness some of these things are available at Trader Joe's or I'd really break the bank!

    Dog food as well, I only buy expensive pet store kinds, and supplement with "real" food (meat) from Whole Foods.

    Even my hardware and software I'm usually able to find a discount. I've also learned never to buy anything on the internet w/o googling for a promo code!
