We have one of those low $ above ground swimming pools. Have used it 6 years. Last year, it developed a small leak. Rather than attempt to fix this pool, we'd like to start fresh with a larger one (current pool is 14'). Walmart.com had the same model pool in a 22' diameter earlier this week for $549. Knowing we're still 3+ months from using a pool, I held off. As of this weekend, the pool is $649. Ugh!
 
LOL dude, I got upset when I missed using a $4.00 coupon on tide earlier this year. I had a coupon and instead of just using it, I kept saying I'll wait until tide goes on sale and then use it. well wouldn't you know it the coupon expired a lot quicker than the usual coupon. ****grrrr***

I'm now playing the airline ticket waiting game. A couple of friends and I get together every few years and do 3 days in Vegas, I saw a really great fare from philly to vegas r/t for under 300 bucks in January and thought, "I'll wait until it gets a little closer" (trip is in April) I'm already kicking myself.
 
Oh yeah, the new TV we want was $779 in early November. It added actually went UP to $1,004 for Black Friday, $1,199 in December, now back down to $1,004 for a "Super Bowl Special".

The good thing about TV's is the price WILL come down again - course by then the next size larger will be priced better, and I'll be thinking "hmmmmm".
 

I missed during health sign up. Do your normal labs and health maintenance and get $240 on your check, $10 each month? Dang us workers talk about everything and no one mentioned that
 
happens all the time.... usually it's like 3.00 missed or something and then I start obsessing about it....:rotfl: I have to remind myself that a new bargain will pop up soon.....
 
Have all of our flights for an upcoming trip except for the BUFF to MCO leg for dd18. We had to wait while she figured out her schedule. We've been good to book for awhile now but I kept putting it off. I know better than this. Of course the flight we need jumped $100 overnight and isn't coming back down. To add insult to injury after EBCI and the exchange rate that $100 is actually $160 to me. Just because I hesitated. Stupid Stupid Stupid. We're already getting killed on the current exchange rate for the entire trip. I didn't need to add to it by being stupid.
 
Drives me crazy! Saw a 32 gb memory card for $6.99 the other day. Thought about it. Didn't buy it because I didn't need it. Hubby brings in GPS that needs a new memory card - guess what he needed??? Yep, 32 gb cost me $30 over the weekend :o(

Awww, we've ALL done things like this - you're NOT stupid!
 
Bc of reading this thread I was reminded that we need to replace our above ground pool this year too. Probably saved me $ bc they are always less expensive during the cold weather months! Ordering tonight!
Thanks OP!

We are in a similar boat. Airfare for our dates has been astronomically high, but one morning the flights dropped in price. By the time I was able to figure out if we could make it work, some of the fares were already sold out. I still saved some $, but oh it hurt to know I could have saved more!
