Mindful buying

Wait 30 days.

4 min read

Most clutter arrives one purchase at a time.

Before you buy

  • Add it to a waiting list and wait 30 days
  • Ask where it will live in your home
  • Ask what it replaces
  • Check whether you can borrow or rent it
  • If you still want it in a month, buy it with a clear conscience
