I'm realllllly good with my money. My banker (family friend who's known me since I was 5) has told me before that if I wanted a career change to go into financial planning.
So even when I'm in an up and do spend money.... it's just my spending/saving money that I blow - I never, ever, spend more than I can afford.
It helps that I don't have easily accessibly shopping here, and I won't buy clothes online (they'd never fit!) and I prefer browsing for books in bookstores as opposed to purchasing online. haha.
Usually for me, I'm planning on a trip or a big-ticket item, so I resist the impulses most of the time by going "BUT I want THAT MORE!"
