Some methods to avoid pointless purchases and save money

A woman who describes herself as "shopping addicted" has invented the perfect way to stop herself from making impulsive purchases that she does not really need, saving her money in the process.

Alexandra Hourigan shared the money-saving advice on her virtual communication channels, where she explained that whenever she finds herself getting something in a store or seeing something online, she has a conversation with herself about how much it costs.

The woman said she feels as if someone is offering her the amount of money she is thinking of spending, and if she would rather take the money in cash than buy the item, then she knows she does not need it.

Alexandra, who is from Australia, said: "If you see, for example, an iPhone case that you really want and that case costs $ 25, and I turn to you and say, 'Okay, you can only make one choice, either buy the case, or I'll give you $ 25 in cash '.

If you say, 'I really need a new phone case, the old one no longer works for me', then you can buy it because you know you really need it. Whereas if you say, 'Do you know what? I need $ 25 and I'm not getting the phone case ', then you really do not have to make this purchase.

Her post was very interactive, with followers sometimes finding Alexandra's advice valid, sometimes disagreeing with it. There were others who shared their experiences, showing what worked to stop them from making impulsive purchases.

One of them said that he uses this technique: “I always compare the product I want to buy with my pay per hour at work. "If someone says 'you have to work 4 hours and we will give this article', if it is worth it, then I will take it."

Another said: “If I see something in a store, I give myself a week, and if I still think about it after a week, I take it. "If I forgot, I leave."
