Wants versus Needs

I have great difficulty distinguishing needs over wants. Which is probably why there’s a huge stack of (unread) magazines in my apartment but no milk. Here are a few of my current needs and wants. See if you can tell which one’s which


Plane ticket home for the wedding




Chanel snowboard





Bass Guitar


Skateboard decks to put up on walls of my room




Contact lenses



Bloch flats




Huffer Hoodie





Microwave





Digital SLR Camera





Petrol



Space invaders wall decal




30th Anniversary present for parents




Aren't the wants so much prettier than the needs? I'm sure by next week these will be completely different. Or should I say, my wants will be completely different and my needs will probably not have changed at all.

    I have the space-invaders wall. and a pacman one also (:
    i do art, so i just spray-painted them on by makin' my own stencils. and i can tell you now that the wall is a need. it should be prioritised, lol. never underestimate the power of a space invaders wall. it'll boost your house marketing price... ahem.

    definately need the skateboards!! u could do that with cds. paint them in lots and lots of different colours and stick them up ur wall. way cheaper than the skateboards. and i suppose it looks cooler

    oh my word! i have the same problem: expensive taste but crappy budget.
    contact lenses - definitely! I put off getting these for years, but they are so freeing it's worth it.
    microwave - yup.
    camera - I'd try to find it at a discounted price.
    anniversary present - what did you have in mind?

    take care and have a great rest of the week!

    'wants' are so much more fun than 'needs' - you should get the camera...it's a wonderful gift to yourself!

    I love those stickers for the wall. Wants are so much more fun than needs. If only we had the funds to afford all of them! xo

    Awesome post. Gosh, it think there is a constant fight between wants and needs with all the women. I go through it on a daily basis, but these days I am trying to stick to my budget and is it a surprise that I wiped my shopping budget in the very first week of April. AHHH so now I can only do wishful thinking!.
