My sister is a great believer in this - particularly with regard to clothes. She is constantly trying to get my mother to follow her example, but with a total lack of success. Mother just says "but I don't *need* a ... at the moment" and my sister says "But you'll lever find one again when you do need it." Time and again sis is proved right but Mother gets more and more set in her ways with advancing years!
That's a good approach, as long as your size is stable. In the past, I've bought a number of things in end of season sales, only to find that, by the time I want to wear them, they have unaccountably shrunk in the wardrobe :(
