I completed a no buy challenge that ended up lasting nearly 3 years! Yep, you read that right! What started off as a 30 day spending freeze turned into a multi-year spending fast! I really was looking to stop overspending at the time and needed a "no shopping" challenge to do it. Of course, I didn't spend $0 and the name "no buy challenge" can be a bit misleading if you're taking this on for longer periods of time. What I really did was a"low buy challenge" but we'll talk more setting yourself up for success with either a no buy or low buy experience!
