However, for many of us (including me), shopping is a social activity, almost a recreational sport.
And while we may only plan to window shop, so often we can be tempted by what we see.
I find that the best way for me not to spend is to avoid going anywhere near shops. I have a "no advertising material" sticker on my letterbox so I am not tempted by catalogues. I often do my grocery shopping at 7.30 on a Friday morning, and one reason I go so early is that none of the non-food shops are open.
How do you avoid the temptation to shop?
