Patience is the key. Don't buy stuff when you want it. ID what you want and buy it when you get a finally good deal on it.
Like my HT
Receiver - MSRP $1250 - paid $500.
Speakers - MSRP $2500 [mains], $850 [surrounds], $450 [center] - paid $500 [mains], $300 [surrounds], $200 [center]
And on and on, from food to clothing to tools to furniture. Make do with basics until you find a great deal and stock up.
A couple years back, went to the annual Eddie Bauer closeout, when they announced 'everything $5, next 20 minutes,' sidled up with 15 pairs of pants and 20 shirts. Boom set for work duds for years.
Just this weekend, stocked up on Polo, Claiborne and Nautilus summer duds at $7.99 each.
