When we decided to do this year of no-buy Owen and I were both concerned that it would take a
lot of effort and will power to follow through. Surprisingly, this resolution has been a large non-issue for us. I'm not sure if it is because of the general hustle of this year or because if non-consumption just genuinely does not push us. Whatever the reasons, the first third of the year has passed in relative calm with few shopping and desire pangs.
