here are two small examples from me:
My wife thought 4 weeks ago that she needed a new winter jacket (I almost bit into the tabletop – she had only gotten a new one (relatively expensive) about 3 years ago). We also wanted to save a few bucks until the construction finally starts.
Two weeks ago, I absolutely had to order a complete DVD box set of a series from a well-known online retailer. It had become absolutely necessary for me :rolleyes:. Then my wife bit into the same tabletop.
Better start saving for a new table already, yours won’t last much longer :)
Especially those "little things" you treat yourself to can be cut when the construction financing is too tight. I always classified such things in our household budget as luxury, and surprisingly this sum tends toward zero after the construction, but it still amounts to almost €100 monthly. That includes just a few books or a small wish fulfilled.
Before building the house, you simply shopped to your heart’s content, money was in abundance. Now you have to learn to restrain yourself first... that often doesn’t happen overnight :)
You just have to know whether it’s ultimately worth having to consider every cent twice :)
