Try to prioritise what you need first...shoes can be bought a later date.

 

[playmaker09]

Nah, I pretty much save up in advance for the Jordans I want. I hope it never happens and I hope I my priorities are always straight.

I used to do that when i stayed with my father, however when i left to be on my own 2 feet i realized how much more important bills are.
Shoes can definitely be purchased at a later date as it is not extremely important imo compared to other things in life. I still like collecting and i probablywill never stop, i have to purchase the flight 95s and 96s before anything else though!

if you have a really good job, you can take care of all your priorities, and all your habits

I stoped smoking marijuana just for sneakers

But Not really Now I only toke 2 month's out a year.

 

[elpablo21]

no way, maybe i had less money to spend on lunch or extra money for alcohol and going out, but nothing interferes with groceries, my phone or car!
