    <> I feel more and more that the family is not suitable for minimalism, on the contrary, many necessities are discounted** When it is much cheaper, it is really to save money by hoarding more, such as toilet paper, shampoo, etc., and it also saves the time and energy of running the supermarket, of course, don't hoard too much, enough for half a year. Because now e-commerce has two big promotions a year, and it's just right to buy it after half a year is almost used up. If you live alone and spend most of your time working and studying, you don't need to think about it so much, you can live a minimalist life.

    Anyway, the pursuit of simplicity in the heart, not being kidnapped by material desires, and focusing on a more spiritual level is minimalism, not to live an ascetic life. As for stocking up on daily necessities, it doesn't matter as long as you feel that it is good for your life. I think 6 bags are okay, because I think it is very troublesome to always buy these daily necessities, I will stock up appropriately, a grid for toiletries in the cabinet, and a grid for various paper towels.

    Save always having to buy. But don't buy more, just so much, don't go beyond the grid. Are you short of that little bit of money....No matter how good the paper towels are, you can save a little money, but on the contrary, the house is so expensive, and you use it to store so many paper towels that you can't use for a while.

    One accidentally spits back the money you saved when you accidentally rot a roll, mainly because you didn't think so much about it when you bought it, and now you must regret it before you come here to complain. Since you've stocked up, don't blame yourself, do your best, really occupy a place, and give it away, this is a necessity, it should be very popular, and the next time you buy it, think about your helpless mood when you give it awayHoarding is because of insecurity, and it is not a sign of being able to live!

    <>I think it's normal to stock up on necessities, don't be too extreme, I buy a lot of paper towels every time, I often buy them when I save them, and it's also very troublesome to go to the supermarket often." I have a special cabinet at home for stockpiling rolls, paper drawers and diapers. It's full now....Support your purchase, as long as you can use it up within the planned time, if you can't use it up, you can give it to me.

    You just think so, today there is so much toilet paper, it cost money, but it can't be used for a while, and there are other daily necessities in a few days**,** is still so excited, you have a bunch of tun, so repeatedly, to be honest, all kinds of e-commerce ** activities are three days and two ends, you are so tun, it is equivalent to **** a lot of things that cannot be used temporarily, the cost of time is also the cost, and it occupies space and capital, and you can't experience it for the sake of minimalism, what is the picture? Hoarding is the need to sort out that it takes a waste of time to buy appropriately, such as pumping paper, generally three to buy and one to mention, there are also discounts I believe that there will always be activities such as daily necessities do not need to stock up I hope it can help you.

    1. Shopping after a full meal Psychologically speaking, when the body has a sense of satiety, it will reduce the desire to shop. On the contrary, when you are very hungry, you go shopping and want to buy everything, which is especially easy to overspend. Whether it's buying something at the market or shopping on **, this technique has been tried and tested.

    2. Do not take the initiative to ask for or take items (gifts) on the commercial street or in the supermarket, there are often service staff who stuff free tissue packs and magazines into your hands. If you pick it up, it will cause more and more burden on the clutter, and eventually you have to find a place to throw it away. Even if we see a giveaway, we have to tell ourselves in our hearts that the quality of the things that come for free is very low, and it is not worth having for a long time.

    4. Reduce online shopping and do not hoard goods Every year, Double 11 and Double 12, there will be a lot of stories of scattered wealth boys. Some buyers, especially mm, can buy 6 large boxes of things in one go while the goods are cheaper than usual, and such a large amount will only be used up after about 2 years. This kind of shopping is no longer a material thing to buy, but purely a hoarding.

    The home has become a complete warehouse. And before the arrival of Double 11 next year, this buyer will definitely continue to buy new things to continue to occupy the space in the home. Over time, you will have to spend extra money to rent a warehouse to store your things.

    6. Reduce take-out, reduce packaging, and bring your own shopping bagsWhen shopping, try to choose products with simple packaging. A complex product often contains countless packaging, we encounter beautifully made packaging, it is always difficult to bear to throw away, always thinking that maybe it will be used in the future, as a result, such packaging bags, boxes are often not used, has been squeezing our space in the corner of the home.

    Making a shopping list will make it easier to control the process and results of the increase in items. It's very easy to make a shopping list, you can make a simple list with pen and paper, and you can just take it with you when you shop. The list is as follows:

    1. I usually use to build a note in Evernote, specifically listing the names of the items I need, **and**, and I can refer to it when I open my phone when shopping.

    2. If you want to buy large household items, such as going to IKEA, you can only wander aimlessly without a shopping list in your hand, and it is very easy to get lost in the maze of 10,000 goods, and waste time and money to buy back items that you don't need. Five years ago, I bought a canvas bag at IKEA that I put on the armrest of the sofa to store all kinds of TVs and remote controls for air conditioners. Originally, I hoped to use it when I had a new house and a new sofa in the future, but after 5 years, I still don't have the environment to use this item.

    It was eventually given away at an unused item exchange event. It's not that the thing itself is bad, it's that I didn't plan it well.
