I've been reading a couple of financial blogs lately, and one of them mentioned the constant temptation of having emails from retailers in your inbox. It really opened my eyes.
I am starting to unsubscribe to various sites/retailers, and I'm leaving my buying-based Facebook groups. I very often throw out catalogs, or, I write on the cover the page # of an item inside I might want. Later, when I go through the catalogs, the item doesn't seem important. Or sometimes, I don't even open it up. I just toss it.
I'm beginning to realize how much of my money goes on stupid little things that are soon forgotten. My worst habit is probably art supplies I never use. I'm putting together boxes of unused supplies to donate to a local group that works with disabled adults. They run a studio in which the adults make beautiful craft items, which are displayed in a gallery or sold at the local fine arts festival.
