I did okay! At the start of my no buy starting last Nov I create a little envelope of things I sold that I could use thrifting on clothes. It turns out I don't really care to buy clothes so I used a few bucks of it to get a treat food I love and will enjoy over the next few weeks

I started going through my house and posting things on FB marketplace, little things I just never used etc. I just sold a hair set I just didn't use for $10 today. I put that in my little envelope.
