Stop spending to save

December 1, 2024/0 Comments/in Tip of the Month/by Janine Cavanaugh, CPO®

We’ve all done it. We fall prey to the notice that flashes on the screen telling us that if we spend just $16.00 more, (or some other amount) we’ll save 20%, or get free shipping, or a free promo gift. But do we only spend the required amount or do we spend more? We spend more than originally planned because the vendor encourages us to spend more to save money? Is it worth it?

Do you really want more at this time?

Are these extra items necessary?

Is this a want or a need?

Do you have room for more?

Remember, the more we have the more we have to organize and maintain.
