Keep up the great work! I’ve been trimming down extras in my life too although one thing that I do need to purchase would be a good bike. I left mine at my parents house when I moved because I never used it and now, I’d love to start riding more for health benefits and to save money - but the bike is on the other side of the country! Heh.

Congrats on trimming so much off of your spending.

I am so bad with the “stuff” part of your post - I’m a huge packrat and I have a horrible time giving things away that “I might need someday.” I’m attempting to get more into the mindset that if I do end up needing it in the future (this rarely happens) I can just buy it again.

Two of my big weaknesses are craft supplies and things I feel like I should own but don’t necessarily need. Cookie guns (I have used mine once), cookie cutters, nine million knitting needles, boxes and boxes of yarn, trinkets, etc. It’s just like you said about your Kevin Smith movies, regardless of whether you use it or not you can say you own it.

Your “rescuing” term is great too. Let us know how it has been going!
