  • I’m so excited to share my goal to pursue a low buy in 2024! After my recent burn out phase, I feel the need to implement even more of a simplified lifestyle, and pursuing a low buy is the perfect way to incorporate this. This means I’ll be setting strict limits on the types and amounts of purchases I can make this year. The focus will be on spending on what’s truly important to me, and buying less stuff overall. Wish me luck, and let me know if you're doing something similar! #lowbuy #consciousconsumption

    What are your thoughts on doing a low buy (or even a no buy)? ✨

    I plan to do one in 2025 but I’m taking a step further & stocking up on necessities that way I’m literally only spending on food & bills. I’ll give myself a limit each month tho just in case something comes up or something runs out that I need to replace

    Great video! I have a big TBR book pile, so will stop buying books and I’m using my library a lot. I need to unsubscribe from more emails.

      Thank you so much for watching ❤ I love your idea of borrowing books instead. That’ll be my next step!

      @@SharonThen my local library lets me pause my place in line for the books that I've requested, and it very helpful when I'm reading a book I own and can stop multiple library books from becoming available to me when I don't have time to read them.

    I really enjoyed watching this video. I feel like I have been doing this for a while now. It is just good to know that there are people out there that are doing the same.

      Aw thank you! I love that you've been intentional with your spending for a while now. And also love that you can find this kind of community on here 😄

      @@SharonThen Yeah! Was happy your video was suggested to me. I feel like a lot of people should see more of this content rather than buying and buying more stuff that people don’t really need. 😀

      I’m so happy to hear this! Thank you ❤ And absolutely I will film my declutter… once I can get myself to do it 😅

    Omg thank you for sharing! This was really informative and I love how you gave actionable items for others to try :) I think I’ll start with a low buy month and see how it goes!
    And honestly as someone who works in a completely different field but has a lot of accountant friends, I know y’all love your spreadsheets and formulas! lol
    Would you ever consider sharing a version of your spreadsheet with the community to use for tracking? ☺️

      I'm so happy to hear this - thanks Kristine!! I'm so excited to hear that you're thinking about doing a low buy month. It's quite eye opening actually. And sharing my spreadsheet is a great idea! Might have to reformat a few things for better user-friendly access - I'll see what I can do!

    The lash extensions- haha, I totally get it. It’s like the one thing I allow myself to get and not feel guilty. 🤭

      Yes - love that you get me 😆 I've stopped getting my nails done, but lash extensions will have to stay!

      Why is this for rich people? More or less all of us are super consumerists and buy things we do not actually need

      Imagine how much more you'd buy if you were still subscribed! 😂
