My No Buy/Low Buy Update

June 12, 2023 & Leave a Comment

Hi there! Happy Monday!

We are halfway through 2023 already, and it’s time for me to update on my no buy/low buy for 2023.

I have so far followed all of my rules, but I have definitely pushed it a little bit. For example, I asked my mom for clothing and shoes for my birthday, and I had a few gift cards, and when I used those I would pay the difference and allow that. For example, I had a $50 gift card but spent $70. I also bought myself a Mother’s Day Gift that I picked which is what I told my husband I wanted.

Shopping Triggers

Shopping definitely gives a little happy boost, and fashion is my weakness. I notice that I want to shop when I’m really stressed, or sad, and sometimes just when I see a great piece that I think will be impactful in my closest.

What I’ve Learned

While I haven’t been perfect, the no buy / low buy has stopped me from buying things right away and made me pause. And a lot of times the “must have it” feeling will fade. Having to be creative with gifts and gift cards has also ensured I really research what I want. It helps me to save a web browser and I can always go back to the item later. It also helps me to organize what I do have, for example organizing my shorts or all of my hats. I also like putting together outfits from my closet instead of seeing a new item and putting an outfit together in my head with the new item.
