I was told once a long time ago that you make money when you're buying, not when you're selling. I guess that sticks in my head and along with some other reasons is why it's hard for me to pass up on deals.
For example last yr Midway had a sale on .224 Hornady 55 gr V-max bullets for $13.50 per box, and free shipping over $49. They had 16 boxes available at that price when I seen it, I bought all 16. Be a long time until I go through 1,600 bullets out of 1 gun, but I have them, or I can sell some.
Another guy had 16 boxes of factory 35 Remington 200 grain Remington Cor Lokts for $15.18 per box including the shipping. I almost can't buy the components for that, I bought them all. They're double that and more sitting on the shelves of local gun stores.
So all weapons and components combined I guess I'm in the same boat as some others. I can keep right on shooting regardless. In times like these I'm glad I buy good deals when I see them.
