No Buys
Purses, Handbags, Wallets, etc.
I will not purchase another until this date a year from today- February 13, 2015.
Jewelry
I will not purchase any jewelry for a year. I am allowed to make anything I want with what I have on hand though.
Storage Containers
I will use all the available storage containers I have or make do with homemade ones for the next year.
Low Buys and Slow Buys
Candles
I will burn all of my candles completely before I purchase a new one. This includes tea lights and wax melts. I will use up all my incense and air fragrances. I don't think it will take me a full year so I am allowing myself to repurchase when my supply is gone.
Shoes
I will allow myself two new pairs of shoes for the next twelve months. No more.
Books
I can get books from the library but I must read and get rid of a dozen personal books before I can buy a new one. I will need to keep a list and keep track of this. I consider books listed on paperbackswap as being the same as donated.
This list doesn't leave me much to purchase for myself. Perhaps I can spend my time doing other things I enjoy like gardening or walking my dogs. Shopping has been my go to entertainment for way too long. Time to embrace a healthy change.
