When it comes to money, what are you NOT frugal about?

Coffee, travel, care of pets, eating out, and gifts for friends and loved ones.

Only things about which I'm convinced that they are worth the price.

@CrazyMusicLover Like what? Give us an example.

@Musicman For example, if I find shoes that fit, look great and seem to be made really well, I'm buying them even if they are far more expansive than I originally planned to pay. It's so rare now to find such shoes that I just know I would regret not buying them. Also, I have a rule that I'm not paying as much for synthetic materials as I would normally pay for leather, unless the materials have specific properties, like for example it's with hiking shoes.

With food, if I already know that a certain brand of ham is significantly better than other cheaper brands, I'm going to buy it regardless of the price. But if I don't know that, I reach out for cheaper ones because I don't want to risk spending more money only to find out that I don't like it.
