I’m doing a low/no buy year especially for clothes and makeup because I’ve really gotten to a point where I buy without thinking or for emotional reasoning and it adds up a lot. The amount of purchasing is really above my current means and I do not need any more clothes at all. Looking forward to resetting and changing my relationship with shopping (and also making gains in my savings)!

Hollister, H & M…all cheap brands. Buy higher end brands like Patagonia & your clothing will last much longer. Good shoes are an investment. In order to have good feet when you are older, good shoes with good support are a must.

That would be great!! Keep us posted on how it goes!

No buy January and a low buy 2023. Making a list of what I am not buying and what I'm willing to spend money doing is eye opening. Thanks for your insight.

So I think you make some really valid points. Yes, saving money is super important. But it's also important to remember to live a little. I do as much free activity as I can possibly think of. Walking, new parks w/ puppy, playing games/puzzles we already have, etc. I also believe in replacing things I use regularly; face moisturizer, body wash, home cleaning supplies etc. I'm on a no spend, & I see the differences between that and a low spend. Even if I have like, an impromptu date night or something, I give it a budget. $20, example. Snacks, grocery food dinner, and a Redbox movie. Done :D Is that a cheat or no? I'm not sure. But it is mindfully thought over before spending. & to me, that's a win! Just discovering your content.

I’m doing a no buy January and a low buy year and I will be documenting it on my channel so I’m excited someone else is

Woohoo! We got this 💪

A lot of excellent thoughts and ideas here. Obviously some of them are unique to you, but there are some that seem like they should be obvious for everyone. My personal spending revolves around guitars/gear and I'm doing my best to quit/hold back this year, AND sell excess gear and other items, to pay down debt. My goal is to be debt free by the end of 2023 #debtfree23.

I'm going to attempt a complete replacement only no spend year for 2023. The only thing i'll buy is replacements for stuff that I use up the last thing of, and books. Streaming services (Netflix, Crunchyroll) will continue, but I have about 600 books between physical and kindle that i've purchased over the last couple of years, and i've only read about 100 of those. Health is fine. Clothing I will purchase as needed (I only buy when they need replacing or essential anyway), and a dress to wear to 2 weddings in April. Plus gym contract. I'm going to limit eating out at work to 1x week. I have a financial goal to pay my father back the money he's leant us, and end up with $20K in the account at the end of the year. My partner and I are saving for a house deposit, which we're hopefully going to get in 2024. I want to declutter in 2023 as well. We've just moved continents and there's a ton of stuff we've been gifted by my parents that we just don't use - Pie maker, donut cooker.... so I want to either try and figure out how to use them in 2021 or pass them on to new homes. I'm keen to get started! Initially I was just going to do makeup, but i think a no spend year for everything unless it's essential will do me some good. 🙂

Tried and totally failed in 2022 but I kept a meticulous list of everything I purchased and where I purchased it from so I can look bacj at it and see my weak points

Yess I love to see this! I appreciate that you mentioned that many of the things that we buy are wants, and not needs. Many of us have the things that we already need. I have been on a no buy for November and December and I'll be doing a low buy throughout 2023 as well. =) I'll probably continue with a no buy for the first few months of 2023 and then readjust. I love no buy/low buys! It makes us so much more conscious of our spending and also the physical items we are accumulating. I can't wait to hear about your declutter journey too!

Great stuff, Leila! You've inspired me to declutter... I really want to go through my clothing. I've also been working on getting rid of unnecessary paper in my life. I upgraded my printer/scanner and have two bank boxes of files to go through, scan what I need, and shred the rest. I've realized there is very little reason to keep paper copies of so many things that I've otherwise just been filing away. For books - as a public librarian, I'm totally with you with the love for reading! For long hold lists on popular books - try placing every book on hold as soon as you find out about it. As you work your way through the books you have already purchased, you'll likely find that some of those holds will become available. I find that once my hold list becomes 20-30 items, I get notifications that 1 or 2 of the items are available nearly every week, so before you know it you'll have more library holds ready than you need! Depending on your library, it's likely you can also "suspend" holds, meaning you can keep your place in line at the top of the list but you say that you don't want the holds for a few weeks, months, or whatever you need. It's great for building a list of books that will become available quickly once you a ready for them and "unsuspend" them. I'm not the best example because I work in a library, but I have not purchased a book that wasn't a gift in years - the library saves SO much money!! Best of luck for 2023 - this is going to be a great year for you!

Girl, I'm also a book lover! I went crazy buying books in 2022. It's so easy to look at my library wait list and just buy it lolll Thanks for the inspiration to at least hold off for awhile 🙏💕

I travelled twice this year , I went to Florida for Valentine’s Day and went to Dominican Republic for a friend’s wedding and I’m happy that I still made memories. I get paid weekly and budget by paycheck and allocate a percentage for my savings and debt. This Friday I will put my last remaining huge chunk of money towards my 3-6 month expenses and then I will tackle my medical debt. Some sinking funds had to be paused in order to meet this goal.

I was with you until you stated you got a new credit card AFTER you said you wanted to get better with your debt. How is opening another credit card and using it getting better with your debt? Just seems really counterproductive.

I completely agree, experiences are great but most people usually go over budget bc they’re “living life to the fullest”. My family of four can easily spend close to a $1,000 for a weekend getaway. By the time you pay for hotel, food 3x, and entertainment that is usually $100-$150 a pop, and gas to go back home. It gets very expensive. It’s something that we can’t afford every single weekend. My family normally just don’t go “sight seeing” or go hiking, my husband and kids love to ride go-carts, mountain roller coasters, indoor tubing, basically any physical activities and those are not cheap. I don’t know how large families do it.

A low spend year can be "customized!" To travel and experiences are truly valuable so I am choosing to spend money on that this year. However, while I do enjoy new clothes/material things, those aren't super valuable to me right now so I primarily want to eliminate that for 2023!

Recently found you. I can relate to the drain of social media and its influence to shop. Good luck in 2023!

I tried to do my first no buy year in 2021 and it did not happen for me but I tried again in 2022 and it actually stuck this time. The reason I wanted to do it was to pay off my mortgage which I did in September! While I don't know if I will do a full no buy year in 2023 I do plan on doing at least six months so I can work on saving for a new (to me) car. Two things in January almost derailed me because I had to get a new phone and a new water heater but I just had to remind myself that those were within my rules and keep on going. Being sure to make concessions for the things that you really know you want/need is super important or you'll get burnt out so quickly. I still made sure that I was allowed to buy new albums by my favorite band but just not additional merch, and I was allowed to eat out while on vacation or with friends on special occasions, just not by myself. You really have to specialize it to yourself and your spending.

Great video🤗super inspirational, I feel the exact sameeeeee about social media!!! I used to deactivate them, but lately I have felt it’s easier for me to not go so extreme, but instead just take them off of my phone…I stick to intentions better this way. Happy New Year🎉🎉2023 will rock ❤

But even with rules, I have to tap the breaks a little so I can save to actually get the area for my library in order (it needs a drop ceiling installed and painted, etc., so it’s a small save but needs to happen so I can actually enjoy the space).
