Clothes
No shopping for clothes! You’re going to have to start shopping your own closet or borrowing from friends. This one can be challenging for all the fashionable girlies out there but you will survive.
Eating Out
We are all guilty of eating out a little more than we should. Once you start the no-buy challenge, you will no longer be grabbing take-out or eating at restaurants.
Entertainment
If you are anti-social then will be easy-peasy, I don’t go often so this was not much of a challenge for me. The most difficult part was when my friends would go out and I couldn’t join them, luckily this is only temporary.
Home Decor
If you love decorating your home then this can be challenging. Not buying any home decor will help you reflect on your style and what you really want for your home.
Kitchen Items
Kitchen items would include things like unnecessary kitchen utensils, blenders, organizers, and other items you don’t need in order to survive. Yes, you can still buy food.
Extra Makeup
Use what you have and don’t buy any extra makeup. If you run out of makeup that you are currently using, you can replenish but can’t buy any extra makeup you don’t already use.
