The ONE Habit that will save you a LOT of money 💸🚫

Hey guys!

As the semester becomes more stressful, retail therapy might be CALLING to you….

Pls don’t fall for it okay!!! Go to the gym instead YHE dopamine boost is >>> and you sleep well at night!!

ANW that isn’t my tip for this post, this habit I have has really saved me a lot of money, and makes me appreciate wtv I buy, much more than I would if I didn’t have the habit.

——-

🛍 when making a huge purchase, buy the thing 1 month after you first thought about it!

So for example, if you want to buy a new handbag that is $500, stop and think if your life is good enough now. If you still think you need the bag, set a mental reminder for yourself ONE MONTH later, to make the purchase.

If you can live your life happily without this bag for a month, you don’t need to fork out $500 for it!!! If you forget about it during this month, congrats, you don’t need to bag, thank goodness you didn’t spend on it :))

if you’re still thinking about the bag, and how life would be better with it, then you can seriously consider buying it

Doing this has saved me so much money and honestly, I really google a lot about the product during that month, and truly appreciate it when I buy it later!!

And if anyone says it was an impulse decision, I can confidently say, “No, I thought a lot about this”

Hope this helps!!! Also, let me know if you have any habits, or tips and tricks on how you don’t spend too much, coz rn, I mainly spend on food….. uh- this hack only works for imperishables For me 😩😭
