Ever feel like you don't "need" anymore hunting stuff?

I know I will probably get blasted for this, but....
I have a good bit Bass Pro Shops Rewards points that I could use to purchase an item or items for the upcoming season, but I have been through their website and cannot find anything that I just have to have. I want to use them, but on something that I "need" or would come in handy. I'm sure something will come up during the season that I will need, so I will most likely old on to them.
But, has anyone ever had this feeling? And what would you use the points for?

No, never had that feeling.
I can always stand a few new deer stands and trail cameras. Also gloves, socks, little chit like that i loose every year. Always need ammo too.

Reached that point a couple years back. Never would have thought it existed. Told the wife and she didn't believe it, but only thing I buy now are shells & replacement socks.
The only new stuff they come out with are bird-flaring gizmoes and other assorted garbage.
[Edited to include the following:] Scratch the "buy" replacement socks - I got those lifetime BPS socks and haven't bought a new pair in 6 years.

I thought I would never reach this point either, but got paid lsat friday, checked points and started searching...By all means I do not have everything on the market, but I feel like I have reached the point of having the essentials....
Maybe a spare set of waders, never know when I'll poke a hole in a pair...I would rather buy shells somewhere they are cheaper. Spendig money regardless of rewards points/gift certificate at high dollar place just doesn't make sense to me.

Man i read this again and still cant imagine that problem. I read thru the cableas hard back about every night. Dont buy much but just think about what i would like to have. Surely there is something in that big ass bass pro catalog that excites you?
