[quote=Anonymous]I like this thread - very eye-opening and relevant for me, since I've been trying to cut way down recently. I like one PPs idea of keeping track of all purchases on a separate spreadsheet.

I'm 30, so relatively in the middle of my millennial cohort, and realized I was spending close to $300/month ($3600/ year) on seemingly random purchases that obviously add up a LOT. Many were "necessary," like practical, durable black heels for my new job and a new winter coat and boots to replace ones that were 10+ years old, etc.), but I'm sure I could've found cheaper versions.

I actually signed up for Rent the Runway's unlimited subscription about two months ago, and so far it's helped because I just - point blank- don't allow myself to buy anything new. But it's hard when you find a really great piece from them and have the option to purchase it for crazy discounts (usually 50%+ off). Plus, at $160/ month, that's still a lot of money on clothes, without even including shoes. I don't know how much longer I'll subscribe, but I figure it'll be helpful around the holidays for dresses and then I can reassess in January.[/quote]
