Do you spend more money as a result of spending more time on RFD Hot Deals forum?

Are you like me and go on the RFD Hot Deals forum on your spare time on a regular basis and can't resist an item on sale so you pull your CC even though you don't really need the discounted product?
Maybe you convince yourself that you will eventually find a use for the item so you have a fair reason to buy it. :)
Or are you the disciplined type of person and only buy stuff that you really need?

Nope. Items that I want on sale never go on sale when I want them to...

I like to think of it as:
RFD allows me to get the things I WANT, at the price I NEED it to be.

Now my credit card bill is down to $0 of hot deal purchases, since I got everything I WANT...

For now!

Tough to say. I've saved a lot of money thanks to RFD on the things I actually need/use, but I've definitely bought a lot of things I've never thought of buying before because of RFD. I say, they've cancelled each other out.

At the start, yes but not anymore. I got stuff that I bought "cheaply" 2 years ago still collecting dust in the basement.
A life spent making mistakes is not only more memorable, but more useful than a life spent doing nothing.

This site is counter intuitive for sure.

I don't, considering a large percentage of the deals posted are computer and electronic related. I am very rarely interested in those.
Remember to be an RFD-er and NOT a degenerate.
