2026 No Buy

[Eatingmusselsfromashell]

I am planning a strict 2026 clothes no buy. I’ve tried in the past but the maximum I achieved was 3 months or so.
I’m sick of the cycle of seeing/ wanting / buying. I want to couple my No Buy with some other habit changes. I would like to limit screen time to one hour a day (except when listening to podcasts/ books and language learning). This is the year to brush up my Spanish and German for trips later in the year. I am annoyed at the hours of life I have wasted scrolling online sites.
I’ve tidied wardrobe in preparation and am ebaying / charity shopping anything which isn’t currently working for me.
Anyone else want to join me for moral support?

I agree with @IndianSummer78that it sounds like a low buy would be a good step if you are not feeling your wardrobe, @Dunnocantthinkofone.

That’s brilliant @Paetina- such a great saving. It’s really helpful to tally it up - I’ve been doing the same and find it very motivating

I agree with the others @Dunnocantthinkofone , don't want to enable you, but maybe this year is for getting your wardrobe in order, rather than low or no buy? My wardrobe is full of things I love, so I know the need isn't there and I just don't need to acquire more nice things. Sounds like you're in a different position.

Oh good! You’ve all given me the go ahead 😂
I will have an enormous cull and buy some intentional replacements and try fir the first time ever to plan deliberate items in specific cuts and colours rather than grab whatever whim based fancy I happen across
