La regla de las 72 horas: cómo dejar de comprar cosas que realmente no necesitas

Opciones de supermercado

The 72-hour rule is a simple yet effective way to prevent impulse purchases and avoid buying things you don’t need. The rule is straightforward: wait for 72 hours before making a purchase. During this time, you can evaluate whether the item is something you truly need or just an impulse buy.

Demasiada gente gasta dinero que no ha ganado para comprar cosas que no quiere, para impresionar a gente que no le gusta.

Here are some tips to help you implement the 72-hour rule:

  • Make a list: Before you go shopping, make a list of the items you need. Stick to the list and avoid browsing other items that catch your eye.
  • Avoid sales and discounts: Sales and discounts can be tempting but often lead to impulse purchases. Stick to your list and avoid browsing other items that catch your eye.
  • Evaluate your needs: Before making a purchase, ask yourself if the item is something you truly need. Will it add value to your life? Is it something you will use regularly?
  • Wait 72 hours: It may be worth purchasing if you’re still thinking about the item after 72 hours. If not, it’s likely an impulse buy that you don’t need.

By implementing the 72-hour rule, you avoid impulse purchases and save money in the long run. Remember, the key is to evaluate your needs and avoid buying things you don’t need.
