My family, are the opposite from me, they are always able to save up and control their spending, keeping their impulse buying to a bare minimal. My sisters have told me in the past, that they think Im very selfish because I always put myself first, when here my parents are always sacrificing left, right centre for me. To hear somebody to say those words to you, gives you the worst feeling possible.

I wouldn't call it selfish, unless you are going to buy them a gift, and instead of getting them a gift you get something for yourself. But just getting something for yourself isn't selfish.
As for me i'm a cheapskate I don't buy anything unless I absolutley need it and even then I have a big case of buyers remorse afterwards.
