Things that are OKAY to buy before they’re COMPLETELY used up:
1) Toilet paper
2) Food
Also, I’ve started altering my old clothes instead of buying new ones!! That way I’m saving money, keeping the things that have sentimental value, but still achieving a new, fresh look. :)

I hate when I buy a lot of clothes and I never I use them… I just waste a lot of money, and I want to stop this. The other day I gave away stuff for 3270$. I just wish I didnt spend those money and rather saved it. I regret so much.. So therefore, I’ve decided that Im not going to buy anything before I use the stuff I already have…

I’m totally working on this. I’m not buying any new clothing until I’ve worn everything I have to the ground. On the plus side, my jeans are going to be awesomely ripped just in time for when grunge comes back! :D

I simply have too many products that need to be used up, because most of them have only a few more uses left in them. I need to get my product-buying under control!

ixyk hasn't logged in to 43 things for months!1
I’m slowly working my way through my stockpile of bath and body products. I haven’t stopped buying the stuff, I’m just using it faster than I’m buying it right now.
Our cupboards are currently overflowing with canned and dried goods. I think I could go for at least a month with only buying fruits and veggies.
My tea collection is absolutely out of control. Tea party anyone?

I am still strugling with this one. I went grocery shopping yesterday and bought @ 200.00 worth of groceries and we didn’t even need food! Now the pantry , freezer anf fridge are stuffed. I just needed a few things and went with a list but ended up buying several. this is really diffficult, and I’m still working on it.

I just buy way too much stuff! and it’s not that we are in debt- b/c we own no money on vehicles, or anything except our house and regular bills- like phone, internet, cable etc. I just stock pile stuff and I’m tired of living like this. We have a small house and I’m tired of the clutter! It’s pretty bad but I am working on it. I am going through everything and am going to have a yard sale in @ 3 weeks or so.

I am tring to sto buying stuff until I use what I already have. I am really bad about this- I buy stuff in stock- everything bath and body items, food, clothes, makeup, etc. I made a commitment to not buy any food or grocery items for 1 month, b/c I prob have enough food in pantry and freezer to last that long or mayby longer, I am going to try 1 month and see how much food I have left, we don’t eat what we have and buy more groceries instead or go out to eat or ordder pizza etc. I am trying to cook at least 2 times per week, to use up the food that we already have. For example I have bread mixes, brownie mixes, pancake mixes etc. to cook and use up. Right now I am focusing on food but will be doing other areas as well later. I am also going through everyhting in my house and putting stuff in boxes to have a yard sale in about a month. I am looking forward to being on this board b/c I am all about goals and trying to make myself better and come up higher in areas in my life. I just lost 30 lbs. and will be going through all of my clothes as well. take care everyone and keep up the good work achieving your goals!!
