2026 is my no buy year. Here is my list of what I will and won't be buying this year.0

Описание: No categories are safe from my EXTREME no-buy year of 2026. Here are the rules I made for my low buy year and why I am excited to start this experiment. Today I’m sharing the items I am choosing not to buy in 2026 to save money and make more intentional buying decisions. I also share my audit of what I spent money on in the last few months of 2025 to see where my challenges might lie.

Low consumption and minimalism is one way I am preparing for retirement. Saving money is another. Having my guideline will help me be better at minimalism, saving money and simplifying my life. I hope you are inspired to be mindful and intentional with your shopping (and not shopping) next year too.
