If you are bringing something new into the home consider how you might perceive that new thing in one year. Most of us have things we can barely recall what possessed us to purchase them. Once you have made some progress toward simplifying you may begin to consider whether or not used items would do just as well as new ones. Choosing to re-use and the avoidance of new purchases makes good earth sense and can prove much less costly. Finally, consider how vulnerable you are to advertising and consider a diet.
Some people think advertising relies upon shame.
All that remains is to imply their product is the remedy for the shame they just aroused. Consider going for walks instead and notice how little the lilies of the field do not toil or struggle. Our psychic apparatus takes its nourishment from the impressions of the day. Many people are surprised to discover how much can be saved with a few small changes. As you spend less your personal resources seem more abundant.
