Don't buy things on sale

Hi. My name is Jamie and I'm addicted to sales.
Recently I've been thinking about taking a different approach: intentionally avoid sales.
Why?
If your next purchase requires a 20% discount to prove its return on investment, maybe you don’t need it that badly.
Alternative heuristic: Would I pay 50% above the retail price for this product/service? If not, the margins are too thin to justify purchasing.
