Since Jan, I have cut way back on my spending. I wasn't kidding when I said I'm not contributing to this motherfuckers economy. What I'm finding out is its amazing how much shit I don't actually need

I live in Wales UK, cancelled Amazon and Prime, disabled IG and X (not on FB),won't buy anything from shops that have watered down their DEI practices in the USA and any tenuous link to Trump wont get a penny either. They can all piss off.
I have done the same and built a green house i am planting all year round ! And i got chickens! I don’t need much else and i love to fish so i am all good
I cut 80% on Amazon.. I'm going to shops and actually finding some things cheaper, BJ's membership end this month, renew Costco since our city is getting one at end of year, commissary shopping vs Publix.. Look at eggs & coffee prices at commissary
Saaaaame! I stopped buying from Amazon and Target. I had to work harder to find ethical places to buy things and now I'm just like, nah, I don't *really* need that.

With you! Had to do some spending in January as maintenence on my condo so now entering into Frugal February, Miserly March, and Austere April. Keeping my wine club & coffee subscription because ...
I've done the same—no major purchases, and I'm shopping local. I'm even selective about which local businesses I support. It may not make a big difference in the grand scheme, but it matters to me when it comes to not supporting the current administrations lack of morality and integrity.
He got jelly of Temu and took those shippings out too. This guy is drowning in his own deranged policies. Pretty soon, he is going to get sucker-punched. It will not be cute.

Also don’t forget resale shops & estate sales as these are great resources for gently used items!

I also started my seeds for my garden
Only buy what is absolutely necessary
