Less stress on your head rest.
Who's addicted to buying pointless shit? I've known a few people. I seem to like to go out and buy shit when i get really baked.
Other than that, i kind of hate stores/shopping.

I seem to buy pointless things in spurts. I'm starting to be pretty decent with my money but every couple months I seem to go on a pointless spending spree. I end up spending way too much money over the course of a day or a couple days. I don't really mind it though because it brings me back to my focus on saving and managing my money.

I get super into things and buy the best, expensive stuff. And then I'll get over it, and said stuff collects dust.
That's not as bad though since I could use it in the future. And usually do end up using it though not as much as I originally intended.

What do you define as pointless shit? I make educated decisions and tend to buy somewhere near the top range of products in things I'm interested in, but I wouldn't say I really ever buy pointless things.
For example, if I manage to graduate at the end of April (and I'm on track to!), I'm going to buy a pair of Beyerdynamic DT880s, and a E7+E9 combo amp for them. Total cost of ~$500. But fuck it, I've been doing research on headphones for 1+ years now, and I've really narrowed those down to being the best bang for the buck, and realistically beyond this quality I doubt I would find much of a difference (even in the $1000+ range).
I also want a new pair of polarized sunglasses, since I stepped on mine last summer . But those are pretty fucking key - I miss them so much.
Other than that, the only things I foresee myself getting in the near future is some new shoes and a couple t-shirts so I don't look like a hobo . I'd love a Warmoth guitar, but really, I need to get better before I deserve a work of art like that.

That's a good question.
I don't know just little things, like maybe certain foods or fancy drinks, or gift-shop type of things. I'm referring to the kind of people that feel it necessary to purchase something everywhere they go just because it's there.
