I would like 99 of these, and 99 of those, and 99 tents to pitch at the hottie.

I'm generally quite conservative with item buys -- the result being by the end of the game I generally have too much money (Suikoden an exception, sharpening weapons for everyone takes so much). And this doesn't really have to do with buying, but I have a horrid habit of being far too conservative with item use. Like, I'll be in a fight, and I'll consider using that Megalixir or whatever but then I say "no, what if there's a much harder fight later and I really need it?" And then the next fight comes, and I say the same thing. And the really hard battle never comes. When the final battle arrives, I finally say "oops, I never used any of this." And I beat the game with pretty much every uber-item you find in the game (if you can't buy them) still in in my inventory :\

Jam it back in, in the dark.
