Unsubscribe From Every Retail Email and Notification

Retailers send you emails and push notifications for one reason: to make you buy something you were not planning to buy. Every discount alert, cart reminder, and flash-sale banner is a small, well-designed nudge toward spending.

Spend twenty minutes unsubscribing from every store, app, and marketing list you can find. You will still be able to buy what you actually need — you will simply stop being advertised at during your weakest moments.
