Have you ever had a no spend day? Ever tried not to touch your wallet for 24 hours?
The trick is to prepare ahead of time. It’s much easier if you do it during a workday, as you’ll probably want to treat yourself over the weekend. Walk or cycle to the office, bring your lunch in and drink the free coffee work provides. On your way home, don’t be tempted to stop at the grocery store. Cook a healthy meal for dinner, and read a book or watch a free movie in the evening. You’ll be surprised at how much you’ll learn.
And if you are up for a real challenge, go for a non-spending week! You’ll learn there are many things you can easily live without (and some that are really hard to give up!).
