I’ve been very restrained this year. I’ve only purchased some new bamboo bedding, new radio for the kitchen and a few essential oils.

Same here. Waited a few weeks for the deals to hit.

I buy things when I need them or I want to buy them. Not when a group of marketers tell me too. I'm just not that far gone, yet. I'm still able to think for myself at the moment.

Bought my mom some Christmas presents and bought myself some energy drinks and chocolate

Not everyone impulses buys to be a sheep. Some of us need/want things and hold off for the Black Friday sales (as why wouldn’t you if you suspect it’ll be cheaper lol).

it really revolves around do you need something now or within a time window. If the answer is time window, then you just wait for a promotional offer that makes it cheaper/

Thats not being a sheep. It's sensible money management

Exactly.

Black Friday sales aren't even big price markdowns anymore. They are normal sales. The exception are PC parts that haven't been affected by huge surges in RAM prices... much of that has been announced it is about to shoot up in price.
