I am a sale shopper. I prefer not to pay full price for anything. I know most things I buy will go on sale at some point and then I will stock up.
I have always been like this no matter how much money I have, and will do without unless I find a good price. It is a little harder for me now in SE Asia. Everything seems cheap here compared to what I used to pay in the states. But I know most of it will go on sale, so I try to wait unless I really need the thing.
And I do not need much of anything anyway. And I do not have much money to spend anyway. I don’t have anyone telling me I need to buy something anyway.
The biggest cost for me now is travel. I was searching airlines for the best prices for my 90 day visa trips. But now I can go by bus to Singapore from Kuala Lumpur and at about $25 round trip, this is cheap enough.
My post is for the #freewrite weekend single prompt challenge by @mariannewest. Freewrite is a great way to post on steemit when you do not think you have the time, or talent, or anything to say. It’s a great way to start regular posting on steemit. I know you can do this too! Here is Marianne’s freewrite prompt post for today. Give it a try and surprise yourself.

Statistics say that only 5% of people with health resolutions for the New Year will still be on track after Super Bowl Sunday. Is your fitness equipment still out handy, and are you still on a "diet?" Soon we will be in Bathing Suit Season. Are you ready?

What this mean?

Which part?
I wonder how that works with the visa. You only need to leave the country or also have to go back to the States?
I think the worst thing you can do is compare prices with your home country. You do not live their any longer so you need to know the prices of your new home country by head. I do similar like you. I wait and wait... I save bits and if its on sale I store for "the winter".
A good thing of waiting is also you find out you do not need it at all or... if you ask around... you can get it for free :)
Happy day with 💖

I just have to leave the country for a few days and go anywhere. This is why I went to Singapore and will do so again.
You are right about not comparing, but I still change the money into US in my head! Old habits die hard :)
We do not need much anyway. Better to save up for a rainy day lol.
The older I get the less I need.
You know what? I still change Euro into gulden (dutch florin), but abroad I will not compare with what it will cost me at home. Although more frequently shopping in Germany would help

Haha! I go from steem to Thai Baht to usd to Malaysian Ringit in my head, and sometimes singapore dollar. There is NO REASON I need the USD in there.
