Do you like to ever buy stuff for yourself used, or thrifted, or online at a place like Craigslist or eBay? How do you determine what you want to buy used and what you want to buy new?
I love going thrifting, and I tend to try to buy used or lightly owned when I can to save money if the item isn't something I deem necessary to buy new (like food containers or socks and things like that). I've definitely saved a lot of money buying things like CDs, some electronics, older computers, and random other things used! I don't see a real reason to spend more money if I can easily (and I enjoy the hunt sometimes!) find something at a thrift store or on eBay for cheaper. I've gotten things I used every day for my house used, like my network switches or laptop chargers for way cheaper than a brand new one by buying them on eBay. Sometimes I find something cool that I wasn't expecting to find while thrifting too, like the time I found an iPod classic and an N64 with some games at the same store!
