No buy year / No buy month

 No buy year / No buy month

So 2022 the year I was hyped up to do a no buy year. But half way through month one I found myself wishing my life away. I found the prospect so daunting. 

So let’s take each month as it comes. 

Im starting this year with a no buy MONTH.

I had already failed in 2021 but I have learnt that I set my rules far too high. I made it that buying someone a birthday gift was a red day, a fail. So if I had failed that day my head said why not buy more, all the stuff I had saved up in my amazon wish list for example. (Reflecting on the things I did buy last year non of it was essential)

So my rules regarding my weakness areas this year are

• No clothes unless I’m on my last of that essential item
• No toiletries/make up  unless I’m on my last of that essential item
• No non essential food no corner shop trips on my lunch break for snacks

But I am going to allow myself days out / meals with friends. Social events.

This is my year of using stuff up and wearing things out. (Good way to declutter right!)
