The 72-hour rule: How to stop buying things you don't really need

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.

Altfor mange bruker penger de ikke har tjent på å kjøpe ting de ikke vil ha, for å imponere folk de ikke liker.

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.
