For most of my life, I was a coupon and sale seeker. Before I would purchase an item, I would wait for it to go on sale or have a coupon, even for small purchases. Many times, I would organize my purchases around sales and coupons. However, this caused more planning and complexity, which I managed easily when I was younger.
Even after retirement, I was still a coupon and sale seeker for most items. As I'm getting older, the planning and complexity is becoming more difficult and I am choosing to simplify. Now I just buy my smaller items whenever I need them. If they happen to be on sale, great I might buy a few extra.
I will use my sale and coupon efforts for larger purchases, for example appliances and automobile, where the effort yield large savings, and are done infrequently.
Doing this should create more simplicity for my retirement lifestyle.
