Oh, Tina, I love that approach! I ask my business manager--me--and she says
"no," and I say, "aw, please?" And if there is food in the fridge, she
probably says, "yes!" 

Then when the thing comes, and there's no money for food, she says, "oops!"

Pure emotion for me.  I decide I want a new lens and then ask my business 
manager (husband) if I can afford it.  He says, "No." and I order it anyway 
and then try to figure out a way to use it that will pay for it.  It's 
worked so far!
