Justify

-Don't be impulsive with purchases, justify them. Ask yourself Do I really need this? Can I find a cheaper or better alternative? Do I already have something similar at home?

even thought it's not good for you you CAN make your own. Tortillia chips are easy, cookies, brownies, rice krispie treats, etc all pretty easy to make. You will have fun with the kids and save money.
