Camping gear addict

[Lightfoot]

I am starting to think I have an addiction to buying new camping gear/gadgets! I just can't resist all the cool gadgets. :tinysmile_fatgrin_t Anyone else find themselves buying new items all the time?

I am the same way with all of my hiking gear, which often leaks over into the camping gear too. I would be dangerous if I could afford to buy more!

Start doing ultralight backpacking. It's how I curbed my spending. When you judge everything based on it's weight in ounces, suddenly all those gadgets are less appealing. Also, you don't desire them because you learn to make due without them.

Get the book "Lighten Up" by Dan Ladigin. It's great.

That said, I still sometimes buy something I don't need at all.
