So let's revisit your last Costco post. Once you guys get down to TV for your visit and start making more definitive plans for a time frame to move, unless you're planning to haul a lot of stuff across the country, that's when you'll really start thinking about buying any new stuff or not. Christmas stuff was always a draw for me too, but these last 5 years I've been making do and even giving a lot of it away. Right now we're in conundrum about a buying a new mattress. That has been part of our bed hogging predicament. We're used to a king and since that mattress has been killing our backs, we've been trying to sleep on a queen in the guest bedroom that has a wonderful tempurpedic mattress. Now I don't mind putting good money into a mattress but I'm not hauling a king size one to TV. I doubt we'll even take the queen down with us. I really want to buy a new king but what to do?  NOTHING but a first world problem for sure. But my point is everything we buy now goes through that check point about moving it or not, buy it or not, and if we must purchase something like this mattress for example, how much are we willing to spend since we're most likely going to sacrifice it in a couple of years from now. |
I'm right there with you.. Everytime we go to buy a big ticket item I say, "Remember, we're moving in 5 years". lol
I wish we could move and take NOTHING with us but I'm sure we'll still have a truckload of stuff. I hope to get rid of most of our furniture though. It'll be tough not bringing all my tools with me but I know I probably won't need half the stuff I have. I mean I have 7 ladders for goodness sakes..
