Maybe try getting a library card and check out what they have to offer and look into requesting books from other libraries that u pick up at your local library. 🤗

i loved this video! it puts some things into perspective for sure. thank you for your honesty especially when you mentioned you're influenced by trends because i see this in myself haha

[@angela.thepapersentimentshop]

I am doing the same thing. I’m so sick of spending money. Overconsumption is real and I am done. You can do it!

[@sabahatnaheed1435]

Same. Omg I’ve had enough!

[@sabahatnaheed1435]

I want to save £15,000 in 2025 fingers crossed.

I couldn’t remember if you had a kindle or not but the Libby app is my go to for books this coming year. I was also thinking of doing a book pal (like a pen pal) that we send books back and forth when we finish bc I never reread my books.

Morning that was a good idea on changing my spending habit on this video

[@sanguinehearts9373]

I like your rules, they're very realistic!

[@SabSaysItAll]

I'm doing a "lower" buy year. I'm mainly focusing on grocery and online pick/ordering. I'm such an impulse buyer and I'm hoping this helps!

If you have a membership to a wholesale club, I've found they have great deals on Nespresso pods

I'm the same with clothes. I buy clothes and end up using the same stuff

Your goal is very realistic. You got this! My personal goal is to order less from Amazon lol

I don't spend a lot of money anyway except for what I need. I only have two pairs of shoes - a pair of Vans and tennis shoes for working out. I want to make a rule not to buy any junk food. The only tech I will buy in 2025 is a pair of noise cancelling headphones should my WXM4s break for some reason.

[@ambernelson6124]

Why is it that your list and my list could be the same? Haha

[@allisonmccarthy57]

@@ambernelson6124 I’m just trying to work on some of my problem areas with money! And yes you can use the same list!
