5 Tips to Avoid Emotional Spending
Avoid Spending Situations
If you tend to overspend, limit your visits to the mall or the websites of your favorite stores. If online shopping is the problem, find other, non-shopping websites to occupy your time, or replace some of your internet time with another activity. Occupy your time with other inexpensive or free activities. You could go to the library to check out a great book to read. Give yourself a home spa treatment. Take a walk. Play a game of basketball with the kids. Get a group of friends and bring out the board games. There are many great ways to spend without spending any money.
