Maybe set aside a piggy bank for Coach purchases only?
That's what I am doing for my wish list stuff!
100% agree here. I do this with anything I need money for in the future, whether it be a Coach bag or saving up for Christmas or friends' weddings. Only I don't keep the cash around. Too tempting. Here's what you do. Go to your bank, or as I prefer, www.ingdirect.com (much better interest rate). Open a savings account and set up an automatic transfer. You'd be surprised how fast $25-50 here and there adds up. That's your new Coach fund, and you can only buy anything Coach with that money, and I mean anything..doesn't matter if it's a keyfob or a bag.
Not to push ING, but if anyone is interested in opening an account with them, let me know. I can send you an invite that gets you $25 for signing up.
