I have a rule where I ask myself whether I really need what I’m about to buy and If I feel like I can go without it, then I just don’t buy it. I do this typically with clothes. If I already something in that category that is still in good condition, then I don’t need to buy a new one for now.

I like idea of a buy nothing principal. It’s very good idea. Our collective consumerism creates so much waste and pollution.

We buy used items only these days and we do our best to own everything at least a few years before need to repair/renew them.
