She walks through six practical tactics: getting clear on your values, training your eye for quality, knowing your style, naming your triggers, finding support, and planning purchases in advance. The result is less mindless buying and more money left over for the life you actually want. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.simplyfiercely.com/6-tips-to-stop-mindless-shopping/ Quotes to ponder: "Instead of making mindless choices, I'm intentional and considerate about my purchases."
