I have this problem. When I go shopping for others, particularly Christmas shopping, I have this horrible tendency to want to purchase one of whatever I am buying for a friend of family member for myself as well. Saturday I purchased a set of dishware from Bed Bath and Beyond for one of my younger sisters. I really wanted to pick some up for myself as well. I was thinking to myself, "My set is really old. It was a gift and not exactly what I would have picked out myself." Sunday I bought some cute little Christmas themed bowls from Christmas Tree Shops and really wanted some for myself too. I was able to successfully resist the urge in both cases.... for now.
I feel incredibly selfish. I'm not the only one like this, am I?

Oh -- no, I don't think you are selfish at all! If you weren't attracted to what you were buying for others, what would that say -- that you only buy stuff you wouldn't own yourself for your friends and family????
I bought my friend a silver bracelet for Christmas last year and bought it very early in the year. It was an awful temptation to me to leave it in the drawer until Christmas and I could give it to her. I really wanted that bracelet on MY wrist!
It looks wonderful on hers, though. And I'm not sorry that I resisted temptation to keep it (well not TOO sorry!)
