Today’s the day I’m kicking off 2022 with the Buy Nothing challenge because frankly I do

Today’s the day I’m kicking off 2022 with the Buy Nothing challenge because frankly I don’t need anything and because every so often I like to remind myself that more purchases doesn’t = more happiness.

So here are the rules I’ll be sticking to (if you’re challenging yourself, feel free to update these to what works for you!)

three months (but open to longer!)
no new clothes or accessories, thrifted or new
no decor, books, or plants
no new skincare products (unless refilling what I absolutely need)

And I know this one won’t apply to everyone, but I also will not be accepting gifted clothing/accessories/skincare, unless specifically for a sponsored campaign (even though I’m not paying for it, it still consumes resources!)

Those are my rules for the challenge! If you’re following along, feel free to use #SpendingPending so I can see how y’all are holding up
