As I suspected setting rules for my No-Buy Year is essential. I have been watching and reading up on some No-Buy Years and one thing that is a common theme is to have a set of rules that you will follow. Something that is meaningful but not so hard that you can’t keep up the No-Buy year.
RULES:
- No Buying of any Clothing or Accessory Item
- No Buying of any Makeup Item
- No Buying Skincare unless I run out of something essential to my routine. If it is a random serum no repurchasing.
- No Buying of any Body or Hair care. Again unless I’m out of soap or shampoo.
- May buy gifts
- If I receive a gift card-save for essentials or use after no-buy year.
- No Books
- May buy some house decorating items
- Can shop at the MOQ garage sale
- No thrifting for clothes, accessories, books.
- Can buy things my kids need.
- Start Day: Monday, May 16, 2022-Monday, May 15, 2023
*I had made a commitment to buy a couple of pieces from Cabi on the 1/2 price sale. If I still need to I will honor that commitment. Feel like there is another one but can’t remember so I will add if I think of it.
