Sadly, that is true. Saving has become a thing of the past since then invented bank credit cards. I asked someone the other day if they remembered Christmas Clubs - people opened them in January and added a bit all year to save up for Christmas. This was back before Visa and Mastercard and all those other bank cards came into being. One other thing - I think it really did Sears in when the bank credit cards become the thing - Sears was one of the few places that let people buy appliances, furniture, etc on credit. (My mother worked for Sears in their credit office for about 10 years, back in the 70s)
