That mentality makes very little sense. You're saying you would rather buy a $80 bag AND buy a $250 bag 6 mos to a year later? If you can payroll deduct it, do it. Thats an interest free credit card. If you can't, go apply for an interest free credit card. I guess you could use a garbage bag and just toss your stuff in there and carry it over your shoulder. That might be your best bet.
