Identify your spending tendencies.<\/h3>\n<p>If you want to learn how to not spend money, you need to start with your money mindset. It\u2019s important to know your spending tendencies (or as I call them, <em>spendencies<\/em>).<\/p>\n<p>Are you naturally wired to be a spender or a saver? Are you a nerd or a free spirit? Do you value safety or status? All these factors and more can directly influence your spending habits. And the more aware you are of your spending temptations, the more likely you are to guard yourself against them.<\/p>\n<h3>2. Create a budget.<\/h3>\n<p>A budget is the <em>key<\/em> to fighting overspending. Because if you have a spending plan for the month ahead, you\u2019re more likely to stay on track.<\/p>\n<p>Start by listing your monthly income, followed by all your monthly expenses. Be sure to include the basics (starting with food, utilities, housing and transportation) <em>before<\/em> you budget for things like entertainment or clothing. Then subtract your expenses from your income.<\/p>\n<p>The goal is for this number to equal zero\u2014this is called a zero-based budget. You want to make sure every single dollar you make goes toward giving, saving, spending or paying off debt. <strong>A zero-based budget is how you get your spending under control. <\/strong>And the best way to make that zero-based budget work easier is with the EveryDollar app.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019ve never budgeted before, you might be surprised by how much money you\u2019re spending each week (or even each month) on little things\u2014like coffee, lunches or that snack shop at work that your spouse doesn\u2019t know about.<\/p>\n<p>And give yourself some grace. It usually takes a few months to make your budget work for you. Then you can keep fine-tuning your budget to cut costs and trim down your spending even more.<\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"cke_bm_1067S\" style=\"display: none;\">\u00a0<\/span>3. Set money goals.<\/h3>\n<p>Having a specific money goal you\u2019re working toward is a great way to motivate yourself to stop spending money. Because every dollar you spend is one less dollar you can put toward the bigger thing you want.<\/p>\n<p>Your goal could be to pay off debt, save for a car, or go on a debt-free vacation. Whatever it is, make it <em>specific<\/em>. Even better if you have a visual reminder you can put on your fridge or in your wallet. That way, every time you\u2019re tempted to buy something, you have to decide if it\u2019s worth delaying your goal for.<\/p>\n<h3>4. Track your spending.<\/h3>\n<p>It doesn\u2019t matter how large (or small) your income is\u2014if you\u2019re not tracking your spending, you\u2019ll\u00a0never\u00a0be in control of your money. In fact, you\u2019ll always feel like your money is controlling <em>you<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>And while making a budget is important, you also have to <em>stick<\/em> to your budget by tracking your expenses throughout the month. Every single expense. This will help you know how much you have left to spend. Plus, it makes you more aware of where your money is actually going.<\/p>\n<h3>5. Do a no-spend challenge.<\/h3>\n<p>Want to know the best way to stop spending money? Doing a no-spend challenge! This is where you commit to only buying the bare necessities for a certain period of time. And hey, this is actually more fun than it may sound.<\/p>\n<p>Challenging yourself to spend as little as possible for an entire month forces you to be super intentional with your spending. Plus, it helps you see what you can actually live without.<\/p>\n<h3>6. Avoid restaurants (and food delivery apps).<\/h3>\n<p>One of the biggest areas we overspend on is food. We all know that\u00a0eating out\u00a0gets expensive\u2014 and inflation has only made those restaurant tabs worse. If you\u2019re spending $15 on lunch five times a week, that\u2019s $75 a week (and $300 a month). And don\u2019t even get me started on food delivery app fees and out-of-control tipping expectations!<\/p>\n<p>Deciding to cut out (or at least cut\u00a0<em>back<\/em>) on eating out is a huge way to keep yourself from spending too much money. I\u2019m not saying you shouldn\u2019t ever treat yourself to Sunday brunch or a nice dinner on a special occasion\u2014just scale it back some and make sure it\u2019s in the budget.<\/p>\n<h3>7. Plan your meals.<\/h3>\n<p>Speaking of not eating out, planning your meals in advance can help you lower your overall food costs. And it doesn\u2019t have to be complicated!<\/p>\n<p>Choose a couple of recipes for the week, head to the store with your list, and set aside some time to prep or cook your meals. Then the next time you\u2019re tempted to hit up the drive-thru after a long day, you can say, \u201cWe\u2019ve got food at home!\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>8. Use the envelope system.<\/h3>\n<p>One way to keep yourself from overspending is to use the\u00a0cash envelope system. Here\u2019s how it works: You choose specific budget lines (like groceries, gas, personal), label individual envelopes with those lines, and then put cash (yes,\u00a0<em>physical<\/em>\u00a0cash) into each envelope. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The envelope system is helpful for a couple reasons: 1) You tend to spend less\u00a0when you use cash\u00a0instead of swiping a card or tapping your phone, and 2) you can only spend what you\u2019ve budgeted in your envelope. When the money is gone, it\u2019s gone! It\u2019s a great way to keep you disciplined with your spending.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div>\n<h3>9. Swear off debt.<\/h3>\n<p>If you really want to stop spending money you don\u2019t have, you need to swear off <em>borrowing<\/em> money (aka debt). The truth is, debt steals your income. One purchase you make today can keep you trapped in payments (and interest) for months or years to come. Your debt\u00a0<em>owns<\/em>\u00a0you until you pay it off.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s the deal: If you don\u2019t have the cash to pay for something right now, you can\u2019t really afford it. So, if you\u2019re serious about getting your spending under control, go ahead and cancel your credit cards. Take debt completely off the table. Because without credit, overspending isn\u2019t even an option!<\/p>\n<h3>10. Find alternatives to retail therapy.<\/h3>\n<p>We may sometimes joke about being a shopaholic, but compulsive spending, otherwise known as\u00a0retail therapy, is a real thing. We buy something because we want it\u00a0<em>now<\/em>. We add it to our cart\u00a0before\u00a0we think about what\u2019s in the checking account (or before considering our financial goals, for that matter).<\/p>\n<p>But instant gratification isn\u2019t all it\u2019s cracked up to be. Spending money doesn\u2019t actually make you feel better . . . especially when you see your bank account shrinking right before your eyes.<\/p>\n<p>So, instead of trying to spend your feelings away, work out what your emotions are really telling you. Or find other things you can do besides spend money: Move your body, talk to a friend, or do a task you\u2019ve been putting off.<\/p>\n<h3>11. Resist sales.<\/h3>\n<p>Who doesn\u2019t love a good deal? I know I do! Retailers know how to\u00a0lure their customers\u00a0with a flashy (and perfectly placed) sales rack. But how much is all\u00a0this\u00a0saving\u00a0really\u00a0<em>costing<\/em>\u00a0you?<\/p>\n<p>If you buy a new coffee maker you were never going to buy just because it\u2019s 25% off, you\u2019re actually paying 100%\u00a0<em>more\u00a0<\/em>than you would have. And while I\u2019m at it, don\u2019t fall for those add-ons like an extended warranty\u2014they\u2019re often just another sales tactic to get you to spend more. So, if you see an item on sale that you weren\u2019t already planning to get, it wasn\u2019t meant to be (preaching to myself here too).<\/p>\n<p>And if you can\u2019t stop thinking about something, add it to your budget for next month (most likely, there\u2019ll be\u00a0<em>another<\/em>\u00a0sale).<\/p>\n<h3>12. Limit social media comparison.<\/h3>\n<p>Picture this: It\u2019s Saturday morning, and before you realize it, you\u2019re scrolling through your social media feed to catch up on what your friends are up to. Not even two swipes in, you\u2019re bombarded with a post of an influencer making their morning latte\u2014complete with a high-end coffee machine, aesthetic mug and expensive milk frother. Suddenly you\u2019re thinking, <em>Wait, maybe <\/em>my <em>mornings would be better if I had that espresso machine.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Social media makes\u00a0the comparison game\u00a0even more intense. Your friend\u2019s post about their brand-new couch with those perfect throw pillows. That popular blogger\u2019s reel about the incredible, all-inclusive resort she went to. It can make us feel like our lives aren\u2019t good enough and we need to spend more money to reach their level. But all that does is drain our bank accounts and steal our joy.<\/p>\n<p>A good question to ask yourself: <em>Would I still want this if no one else ever sees it?<\/em> You can also cut the comparison by unfollowing those accounts (you know the ones) or limiting your social media use altogether. Trust me, you\u2019ll feel a whole lot lighter!<\/p>\n<h3>13. Shop with a list.<\/h3>\n<p>We\u2019ve all been there. You make a quick run to Target to get toothpaste and peanut butter. But as soon as you walk through the door, you feel the gravitational pull toward the dollar spot and the clothes section. Just like that, a quick trip to the store for two essentials just got\u00a0<em>pretty<\/em>\u00a0expensive.<\/p>\n<p>Consider this: Instead of heading into a store and wandering up and down the aisles, make a list ahead of time and carry it with you into the store to keep you on track. And if you get caught in the impulse buy scenario a lot, try to avoid the stores that make you spend too much money. (Or maybe send your spouse in for you.)<\/p>\n<h3>14. Put monthly bills on automatic payment.<\/h3>\n<p>One of the easiest ways to stay on top of your bills is to put them on auto pay. Seriously\u2014it\u2019s a game-changer. You\u2019ll always know when the money\u2019s coming out, so you can plan for it and keep your budget on track. Some companies even let you pick your due date, which means you can line it up with payday and make the whole thing way less stressful.<\/p>\n<p>Now, I know this one\u2019s more about managing your money than cutting spending\u2014but here\u2019s the deal: Late fees add up fast. And they usually show up when life gets busy and you forget to send the payment in. Auto pay helps you avoid that. It\u2019s one less thing to worry about\u2014and one more way to stay in control.<\/p>\n<h3>15. Pause before you spend.<\/h3>\n<p>If you\u2019re still having trouble sticking to your budget, ask yourself this question before every purchase: <em>When will I use this?<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Take the time to literally imagine how you\u2019ll be using that\u00a0<em>must-have<\/em>\u00a0item a month from now. Will that sweater hold up after a few washes? Will your kids still be playing with that overpriced toy set? Will those shoes go with more than one outfit?<\/p>\n<p>Most of the time, the answer is no. Put it back and save yourself the buyer\u2019s remorse. Otherwise, make it a rule to wait at least 24 hours. By that point, if you still love it and you can fit it into your budget, go ahead and get it.<\/p>\n<h3>16. Use what you already have.<\/h3>\n<p>It\u2019s crazy how much money we waste buying things we really don\u2019t need\u2014especially when we already have things at home that get the job done.<\/p>\n<p>We eye the beautiful, mint green Kitchen Aid mixer when our own mixer works perfectly well. We think we need a new skin care set when we have a whole basket of unused products under the sink.<\/p>\n<p>Before you add an item to your shopping list, take inventory and see what you already own. Also, what can you repurpose, fix or even borrow from a friend? Instead of buying d\u00e9cor, shop your house and rearrange a room for a fresh look. Rather than spend money on a toy for your kid, pull out board games or unused coloring books.<\/p>\n<p>Making use of what you already have will save you money and help you practice contentment. \u00a0<\/p>\n<h3>17. Find someone to hold you accountable.<\/h3>\n<p>It\u2019s one thing to say you\u2019ll stop spending money, but many of us need someone to help us stay on track. Whether it\u2019s a spouse, a friend or even a group chat, tell someone your goal and ask them to check in with you every week or every month.<\/p>\n<p>Maybe your accountability is a financial coach\u2014an expert who can help you navigate your situation and help you get to the root of your overspending. Knowing that you\u2019ll have to report your progress to someone else motivates you to make more of an effort.<\/p>\n<p>And remember, no matter how the next month goes, it\u2019s never too late to change your spending habits. You can always adjust your budget and get back on track at any point.
