Tips to Curb Impulse Shopping
Here are the best tips to stop your impulse habits.
Tip 1:
Avoid shopping platforms when stressed to avoid splurging.
Listen to a podcast/music or go for a walk to destress instead of browsing shopping apps.
Tip 2:
Eat food before going out for errands or keep small, healthy snacks at hand.
Don't succumb to hunger pangs if you only ate a meal recently.
Tip 3:
Read through reviews for a genuine perspective about the product you want from other buyers.
Check try-on videos of the products first from trusted reviewers instead of social media ads.
Tip 4:
Take 24 hours to decide if you need a new purchase whenever an item interests you.
Some retailers offer discounts to buyers if they keep items in the cart without purchasing.
