Recently, the social media industry has blew up the 2025 "no buy" trend, encouraging everyone to learn and save money, besides basic daily necessities. Elysia Berman, a 35-year-old online, has been following the "never buy" list since 2024. She has confirmed that after a year, she has returned $34,000 in card bonds and is preparing to continue this year, and is expected to complete the card bonds in June and then start saving money. According to the report from the USA Today, the list of those not purchased by Berman this year include: new clothing, beauty products, perfumes, jewelry, technology products, books and home decorations. In addition, she promised to sell it only once a month, and the scheduled Pilates sports courses can be cancelled without cancellation.
Bermann talked about the fact that savings are still in debt, he believed that consistency is the most important. When she started to get stuck in debt at the beginning of 2024, she only had about 1,000 yuan at a time, which was as low as "drops of water into the sea", but now her life is no longer far away, and successfully controlling debt makes her feel accomplished.
Plan the "Never Buy" list, so you don't have to set a high remote goal that you have to save thousands of dollars. Other networks have their own challenges. The list of Rachel Holdsworth on TikTok is to reduce hair dyeing, haircuts, nail dyeing, Starbucks, not buy new drinkware such as mugs and water bottles, new cosmetics and hair care products, homewares and food delivery such as Uber Eats and DoorDash.
28-year-old Hozworth said that she and her husband had long been thinking about creating a more stringent budget for 2025. When she was studying how to make no-buy lists, she felt that the challenge this year was very difficult. Looking back on her non-essential expenses in 2024, she thought she was really "scared".
Hozworth analyzed how much she spent in the "not buying" category in 2024, and then estimated that she could save about 5,000 yuan this year after deducting those purchases. She thinks it is easy to not do hair and nail beauty, "but it is the most difficult to reduce food outsourcing services." Jeffrey Jones, associate dean of the Business School of Missouri State University, said that trying new financial management trends is the key to failure. A first-time trial may intend to cut off a lot of unnecessary sales, but will actually spend more on other aspects; for example, someone intends to quit buying a cup of coffee every morning, and instead buy more expensive energy drinks.
Kara Pérez, who is known as the "financial sustained expert", said that those who are just trying to save money must first understand the value of their lifestyle in order to better understand the aspects of saving money. She loves hiking, driving, rafting, and understanding herself can make her financial management more directional. If she spends money on the edge of the knife, she can stay away from unintentional spending.
