I didn’t manage a #BuyNothingYear this year, and the way things are shaping up I don’t think I will during 2023 either, but did pull it off in a few years between 2004-14, and then once again in 2016. I really recommend giving it a shot! (Your ground rules as to what “nothing” means may vary; mine were food, drink, household consumables, books & gifts OK, everything else verboten.) It really brought home the #degrowthist maxim that a sense of thriving and prosperity can be decoupled from #stuff.
