If you are planning to do any shopping right now, be very careful not to overspend. Some of your funds will be needed for more important things very soon, and you need to be prepared for any unexpected expenses. There is one exception, which would be for gifts -- if you want to splurge a little bit on someone who you think deserves a little bit of luxury that they don't often get, then you should. Giving to others will bring you much more reward later on.
