Of course, I buy nothing extravagant. Just a few CDs or such...
Opinions? Speak.
My opinion is that if you're out-of-work, you have no discretionary income. You might want to get those printer cartridges, in case you need to print resumes for some neanderthal outfit that wants them on dead trees.

But why not just put your next couple of trips to the grocery store on the credit card? Resist the temptation to buy yourself "cheer up" presents, you can buy CDs later to celebrate getting hired.
