If you're financially able to spend more on something that makes your life easier, think of it as an investment to your mental health.

I always aim to find good deals and save where I can. I am currently wedding planning, and the same thoughts still apply.

For my wedding dress, I found my dream dress online but one size small for $300. I found the same dress two sizes too small for $250.

Instead of pressuring myself to lose two dress sizes and saving $50, I can reframe it as being happy and healthy (because I need to lose some COVID weight anyway) and that my mental health is worth $50.

I hope this helps you!
