It is always said that impulse is the devil, and this is true. Impulse spending is also the equivalent of a devil.
Now live streaming and online shopping are too common, and it is so convenient to buy things, you don't need to go out, as long as your mobile phone is turned on, you can buy and buy. However, there are some things that we will find that they have been purchased repeatedly, or they are not necessities, and they are not of much use when they are bought. So many times we will reflect and blame ourselves, and make up our minds not to buy it again next time, but soon after the time it will be itchy again. How can I prevent impulsivity? Speaking from my personal experience.
1, use Alipay pen pen to restrain impulse consumption, buy a sum to save a sum, I have used it, but I can't stick to it, because online shopping has already cost money, and if you save a sum again, there is not much money left. So it was canceled outright.
2. Make a good plan for your own needs, determine what you must buy and what you can not buy. For a while, I especially like online shopping, like a demon, every day express delivery can not win, Erbao's clothes and toys, my personal skin care products, clothes, home cleaning products, etc., always feel that everything is a must to buy. But after I bought it, I found that there were too many toys for Erbao, and there were a lot of clothes in the wardrobe, and some of them couldn't be worn a few times a year. When I bought my skin care products, I felt that it was more cost-effective, but after using it for a while, I felt that it was inappropriate and reluctant to throw it away.
After tossing like this for a while, there doesn't seem to be much benefit except for the injury to my wallet, so now I also restrain myself from buying less, and I usually restrain myself from watching live broadcasts to bring goods, and I don't go shopping**Pinduoduo. I don't see anything I really need until a few days later, because I'm afraid that I will buy it on impulse. What to buy when you run out of skin care products, don't buy boxes, don't buy buy one get one free. After refraining from buying, I found that the days of not receiving express delivery were very comfortable, and I didn't have to think about what express I needed to take every day.
3. Set up an account, save the money you save when you don't buy things, and when you save a certain amount, take out a part of it to give yourself a reward. For example, when you like a piece of clothing and want to buy it, but you find that there are similar styles at home or you feel that there are too many clothes to buy, do you save a sum of money? You can put this money in. I have used this method before, but because I did not set up a special account, so it was a bit messy and then useless, and now I am ready to deposit the saved money into the Alipay small money bag, and check it a year later, you can know how much money I saved this year because of the elimination of impulsive consumption. If you stick to it, you should be happy too, right?
4. Don't buy in advance. Before the winter vacation, there was a time when Erbao liked to make his own lanterns, and after I made a few with him, I suddenly thought, wouldn't it make sense to make a few of these lanterns by myself during the Chinese New Year? And it also saves money, wouldn't it look better if there was a light in the lantern? After making such a few assumptions, I immediately bought paper and flashing lanterns on Pinduoduo, thinking that when Dabao came back from vacation, I could interact with parents and children, how meaningful! But as a result, Erbao and his father went to buy the lantern a few days before the Chinese New Year, and the paper and flash that were bought in advance to make the lantern are still in place, isn't it ironic? Therefore, do not prepare materials in advance at any time, unless they are really useful, and do not buy more, and buy as much as you want. Just like when Dabao was in junior high school, we took her to buy a lot of exercise books before the start of school, thinking that it would be convenient to use them, but as a result, she didn't use them until she graduated from high school, and there was about half left, not because she used it less, but sometimes she forgot to take it after she took it to school, and when she used it again, she could only buy new ones at school. And because the exercise book she bought in a unified way is not as good as the new one, she doesn't like to use it very much. In high school, we thought she was running out, she thought she was gone, and it wasn't until she graduated from high school that she realized that there were still many more.
5. Learn to eat healthily and travel green. Try to reduce the habit of ordering takeout and drinking milk tea. Cook more at home and eat less fast food takeout. Drink more plain water and drink less milk tea. Not to mention the cost, there is no benefit to the body at all.
