30 Things I Stopped Buying
30 Things I Stopped Buying
When you choose to live more intentionally, it causes you to pause and reflect on your purchasing habits. To really evaluate why we buy what we do, and if it is really necessary.
Here is my list of 30 things that I stopped buying.
Thanks for watching :)

That’s a keeper!
Great list! Even smaller or single-person households can benefit from what you have shared. Though I live with few possessions, I also like candles but didn't realize how much the "lovely" scent negatively impacted the air quality. Glad you mentioned this, as it can make others aware of what may be contributing to headaches/coughing. Thank you for sharing the advantages of choosing to live more lightly. 🌻

I also love candles SO much lol but I have tried to make better choices where I can! Thank you for your kind words! 🥰
I agree with you on the Tupperware. I have traded out all of my plastic containers for glass ones. They do have plastic lids of course but the food isn’t sitting on plastic. Also if you can use one product for multiples uses like coconut it cuts down on your storage. I wish we had known of this years ago.

Right?! Lol
I have 1 thin blanket for summer and 2 thicker blankets for winter, 1 bed sheet and 2 pillow cases. That's all I use, no need for any extra.
Good list! We buy only two of those items on your list! My husband and Son buy soda (Coke & Mountain Dew Zero) and body wash, but otherwise I don't buy any of these for myself!

That’s amazing! :)
I pay for kindle unlimited and have all my books on my tablet. I am legally blind and cant read printed books. This is a good investment for me since i read about two books a week.
No oh not video games, I buy video games on sale, but only digital though. I use to have a large collection, now it's about 15 physical video games.
I totalyy agree with you with this matter. Americans are materalism and it need to be moderated or stopped. And Keep up your good works.

Many of us definitely have a problem with overconsumption! While it is unrealistic to stop consuming altogether, being more mindful and intentional about it can make a huge difference! :)
No toys. No video game. #Hardcoreparenting!!😂

I overheard my daughter telling friends at school that she didn't have toys, she had livestock and trees. We had lived on five acres when she was growing up.
