A good advice: Don’t overindulge your “feeling poor” state of mind. Things like flipping through shopping catalogs and going to the shopping mall will definitely make you feel like wanting to buy things. Even if you can afford them, remember that the point is this: most of it is beyond your reach. Why not, instead, do things that offer a sense of well-being eg, invite friends over to your place, or take a walk at the park.
