Love that your sister put things in her cart then deleted everything at the end! WOW!! She did great!! I gave myself a yarn challenge years ago. For one year my rule was to use only the yarn I had in my stash. So I made a list of all the yarns I wanted to buy during that year and when the challenge was over I went through the list and crossed off I'd say 90% of the list!

I had all those small balls of sock warn that tI was trying desperately to coordinate with new yarn, then I though, Enough! I started to knit socks from all different colors and patterns sock yarn, that way no waste and they are still as warm as the others! And as a bonus' I declutter my stash.

Was it a fail? I don't really think so. Sherry did very well with several of her purchases being replacements (so items will be leaving the house). Carla, you maybe could have done a little better (since the challenge was your idea) but you didn't do terribly. What I noticed was that both of you, while not resisting the urge to buy, at least were aware of what you were doing. I believe that the awareness and thinking through purchases is a big step toward eventually curbing your shopping. So don't consider it failing, but a positive experiment. You'll get there!

You girls have motivated me to put in the work and de clutter our home of 28 years. Four kids were raised here, only one left in the nest. We have decades of clutter! I’m proud to say I just donated my 12th trash bag of clothes today! I feel so much lighter and inspired to keep going. Every day I wake up and think, what’s it going to be today?!

Your sister is so right. Many women have that 'gathering' instinct and feel very satisfied 'gathering a haul' (ie shopping). But when we realize it is a form of entertainment and a habit, then we can look to replace it with other enjoyable tasks that don't have a negative consequence (money spent and clutter).

January I think is the best month as a lot of people struggle with the wait from being paid from Christmas and having to wait 5-6 weeks to be paid at the end of January. I'm doing a no-buy January and it's going to help massively. I'm going to use the products and food I have and use up everything I can. It definitely helps with using up things you need too plus saving money😊

You really thought about things before you purchased and I think brought way less than you would have normally. Its really hard to break the habit of shopping because everyone makes it so easy and they trigger you with all these 'sale now on' and 'huge discount' terms to make it feel like I have to get it now before its gone. Please do some more no spend challenges, I am sure next time you will both be able to purchase way less or even nothing for the month

I'm about the same age as you and the sales always get me, because I always think of sales being how they were when we were growing up - big sales twice a year in summer and winter/christmas.

Your comparison to dieting is spot on. It's dopamine. When you shop, dopamine is pumped in your brain. Same too when indulging in food. When I used to diet, I would splurge money on shopping. I'm eating whatever I want but I don't shop nearly as much as when I was thinner.

I like to do “no spend” challenges in the manner that A Hoarder’s Heart does them…where I set a goal for the number of days in a month I won’t spend anything. It has been a good way to dip my toe in and then slowly start to push myself to slow down my buying. If I tried to go “cold turkey” I would definitely blow it, but the slow ramp up has taught me a lot. Just the act of leaving things in my cart to consolidate my “spend days” really helped, usually when I got back to the cart I realized I didn’t need those things.

A plan I have for after the holidays (hehe 🧑‍🎄) is doing like a “one-day-buy” where I only have one day a month to splurge on non-necessities. A tip would be throughout the month you can make a list of any items that inspired you to buy them. You can write them down or save them to your cart. After the month is over, if any of the items are still needed/wanted, buy them! That way you have time to contemplate the price and maybe they might go on sale in the mean time! Maybe if you try to do this in November, wait for everything to go on sale on Black Friday ❤

November would be a difficult month for no-buy, for sure! You don't need to buy new clothes for us... you're our role model for minimalism & we appreciate you demonstrating your own practical ideas & tips. As for no-buy, I've tried to train myself to leave stuff in my online shopping cart overnight to see if I still feel as strongly about it the next day... and usually I don't. But if I make an impulse purchase that makes me wake up the next morning with a sinking feeling, I sometimes try to cancel the order. Thank you as always for such relatable videos!

This video in kinda a therapy session between two sisters, I enjoyed the frank talk. I would see a SAFE stepladder as an essential since your sister has lots of stuff that are out of reach. I gave a very good one to my friend because I cared for her safety. The electric blanket for Carla is not an essential but it will add lot of comfort and in a sense it is useful. However a heavy wool blanket is even better, that is used all over the world and it doesn't use electricity. I suggest not looking at screens that advertise, dont go to websites that sell stuff. Find a HOBBY, create something, join a class, visit a friend, walk , exercise, learn to play an instrument, read, garden, volunteer etc... You will find that as you start buying less and less, it will curb your desires. And since you will busy yourselves with other activities you won't have the time to shop.

You two rock together. I so love the honesty and the non-judgemental attitude. Since it's January soon, why not start another try then? I think, I will do that, with the exeption of a victorian cycling skirt I am waiting for and that will probably be availible in January again.

Shopping can be so addictive. Your sis is so on it about the dept, the entertainment and the desperation in the addiction. Great that you are doing this together. ❤

For the last 3 years, I have been decluttering. Now I come up with creative ideas where to donate stuff. As I find more things that need a new home. Today, I took empty grocery bags to a food pantry. I removed the eye lens from 2 pair of old wire rim glasses and donated them to the high school. Theater department. I am also trying 1 in 1 out. Mostly replacing older clothes that no longer fit, too big.😊

I think you both did amazing in your no buy month! Maybe you can try again in January? I think mindset is the key to no buy challenges, the intention may be there but its the small day to day decisions that will make the difference in the long run- kind of like decluttering! :)

Hi Carla I just want to thank you for being a breath of fresh air. My 8 yr old baby girl always asks to watch “the lady with the cute dog” and it’s such a pleasure watching your channel with her and not having to worry about topics discussed or foul language. We love your videos

For 2024 I’m doing a no clothes and shoe shopping challenge. For the whole year. I even told my family like if they got me clothes or shoes for Christmas this year, fine but starting January don’t gift me those things at all!! I’m really excited cuz that’s one thing I blow my money impulsively on the most and I’m decluttering so much I don’t want to have to keep doing it. Wish me luucckkkk 💕💕💕🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

Great video. Thinking i might try a no buy in January. No holidays or gifts for birthdays. Seems like a good way for me to start the year. Thanks for the video and a great idea to try.

Any remodels you do , make sure to save all the paperwork . remodels can be added to your taxes when you file and if you sell the place the realtors will be asking to see them . They will use what the cost was for the remodel to set the price of the home .

Love the idea of No Buy month. Started in January and have done well but it’s only 8 days, however I’m motivated. Last year I upgraded my wardrobe so I have no desire to purchase clothes. No desire for tech, or home improvement as I have plenty of unfinished projects then I can get rid of what is not used to complete them. Okay, we’ll see if I can be successful in this endeavor. The only fly in the ointment is travel for family needs, but that can’t be helped. I’m anticipating 3 trips, one will be this month and the other two may start next month, plus 2 more visit trips later in the year. They are necessary so may be classified “essential” in this realm and are definitely not shopping type trips. Thank you for showing us the way and including your sweet sister in this series.

You guys are great I love how you hold each other accountable and yourself in the end holding accountability. Very good points & conversations. I learned a lot about myself watching this series, it made me realize no offense I'm alot like your sister & want to change my bad habits. Buying, eating, not exceŕsizing and making excuses so many things this taught me so thank you girls, I love this series, and hope you continue having your sister making appearances.

Good job sisters. I can see where you are becoming more aware of what control you have over clutter control. A video that inspired me to cut back on clothes a few years ago brought up the terrible consequences of thrown away clothing to our environment. So, even though I am NOT petite by any means, I try to shop at consignment stores for items like jeans. Yes, they are not the “latest” in fashion but I love to tweak my outfits to update them. Please keep up the banter between you. You both inspire us to “think” and to be “kinder”.

Sherry looking CUTE with the new hair :) Inevitable/upgrades shouldn't count. I'm about to get a bunch of stuff clothing-wise. Can't wear certain choices to work or to my future job, and Texas Winter is weird.

Another great video. I think your sister should write down her purchases. It can be very easy to forget about them. It’s great that she has family members that are helping her to be accountable. I think a savings and exercise challenge would be great for us all in the future!!
This is why decluttering is so hard!!
