I tend to lust after new shiny gadgets in the case of ereaders, laptops and tablets (actually it doesn't have to be brand new in the latter two categories, a newish lightly used device will do as well). OTOH my TV is 6 years old and going strong (it wasn't an expensive model), I bought a new microwave and freezer when the old ones broke down and I tend to wear clothing/footwear until they literally have holes in them or no longer fit (occasionally buying something new, but relatively cheap - I'm very cheap about clothes, as opposed to electronics).
I have no toaster at all. The old toaster gave up the ghost a few years ago and I haven't bothered to replace it.
