Hell yes!!! Got both my cards down to zero balance this month. Put a limit on how much I can spend at Target. I’m going thru my freezer and pantry. It feels so good. I was tired of bringing stuff in, just to declutter crap a month later. Vicious cycle no more. ❤
I have been eagerly waiting to see your results. All I know is I saved a butt ton of money this month. My husband is so sick of me talking about it but it’s very exciting and to be honest I haven’t missed any of it really the over buying and walking around aimlessly in stores for no reason cause I’m bored and spending money. Id much rather save it-thank you Nicole. I got the idea and motivation from YOU!!!Can’t wait to finish up this video and see what your results was.
He won't be sick of it when he realizes the savings😍💰 keep it up girl!!
Girl, $700 for a month of groceries for four people is freaking fantastic! The prices are super high, and we all knowing growing boys eat A LOT
Thank you!!
Hey Nicole!! Congrats I'm here with ya!I'm going through Low carb/low sugar/ withdrawal/ amazon withdrawal we got this !!😂
Way to go Nicole!!
Wow Nicole, I’m really impressed! I’m sure your husband is happy about it as well. I’m not a huge Amazon shopper but when I think I want something, I save it for later and most of the time when I go back to it I really don’t want it anymore. We are a culture of stuff, that is for sure. I like your mindset of memories instead of stuff. At least the vacations are an incentive for something to look forward to with all your hard work of saving money and that is awesome!
I did a low buy and stopped using credit card/ debit card and started cash envelopes. I saved $1850 and put it into the bank and didnt buy anything on amazon (i have sleep buying issues too)
Now I see my savings increasing and I dont want to buy anything.
Great job Nicole!
Amazing!! I love that you are seeing your savings grow, too!🤩
Be careful with banks I be hiding it in my wall
As well as the prices have increased from 2024 to this year! So kudos to you!
🥳Wow Nicole,
Great Work🥇🛍️🎉
I unsubscribed from a lot of companies emails and texts to do the no buy
You’ve been doing amazing! Great job. That grocery bill is amazing ❤️
@@LisasFabKaos thank you🫶
You look so cute today🥰
I’ve saved so much money too…just shopping from the pantry and freezer has been eye opening! I’ve also been going thru my tubs of protein powder instead of buying the cases of Premier Protein singles. Thanks for the motivation! You’re doing great!!❤
That's so awesome!!! Keep it going girl💰💗
I think a lot of us became conditioned to buy more during the 2020 lockdown when things became hard to find. We have to fix that mindset.
100% agree!
loving this content ! i unfollowed almost 300 people on instagram due to the constant product pushing
You should save in Feb. If you recall, there were 5 weeks in January. There are 4 in February.
I saved over 800!!! It’s so hard to believe!!! Bc I have Amazon and grocery addiction!! But I haven’t broke any of my rules!! This month ! Haha
You're killing it!!!! 💰💰
Been learning how to make more things ... Making protein waffles to freeze, yogurt, sour cream, jerky, sorbet, etc. still scared to try to make bread
Whoohoo! Way to go, girl. Have not saved saved that much but have cut down on spending. These videos, all of them, have helped. BTW, looking good in the video. 😂
Amazing results, great job - I can tell you really are committed! Well done!
I appreciate that! 🙌🏼
Do more of these, please!
Btw- you look gorgeous!!!
Thank you so much! 💗
I am also doing the same as you I also will not buy anything extra unless it's a need .I also caught meat on markdown it's a need always so I will stock up if I see it that way I might be able to skip a month if protein
I've cancelled a bunch of subscriptions, this past month. Some of them I didn't even know what they were for! Saving about $100 a month just on that! And we only spent $38 eating out for the month!
That's awesome Savings
Woo hoo!! We are in low buy year as well. Plus one of my goals of not buying any pre made protein drinks and using up my powders first!! I was very sad leaving Sam's club without my fairlife lol.
I've been missing the Fairlife too, lol!
Experiences over gifts 100%
I have been working really hard and watching my spending, using up what I already have. Going thru my spice collection, my water tok syrup/packets, and the overflow of can items. I also keep track of days that no money is spent and that has been eye opening. I didnt have as bad issue with Amazon but I deleted the app off my phone so the temptation to even window shop wasn't there.
Smart girl💯💰💗
Same, I track how many days I spend zero $$. I was stopping to get a drink/snack/whatever way too often. Almost daily.
@@chiwawa6612 same!!! Those morning coffee stops add up!! I just realized the other day that I wasnt count those dang in app purchases on games 🧐 gonna have to be more mindful bout those.
I did not buy anything on my no buy list and I also did a dry January. Consequently, I lost five pounds!
@@MadisonBriggsArtchick amazing🥳
Your content is spot on for what I need! I do love grocery hauls, but I’ve enjoyed seeing how you are able to save! I have excessive amounts of some things I’m working through also (skincare, essential oils, etc). Thank you for the motivation!
Thank you! So glad you're enjoying the content🥰💰💗
Love a good reset ✅
I love the calendar that you did. Sometimes when spending you go in your account and say what did I buy. I am definitely going to do that calendar. We are on a no buy or low buy because hubby just went back to work so we are trimming back alot. Thanks for the ideas.
I did pretty good in January but definitely there is room for improvement! Thanks for this video, I needed the pep talk, I was ready to buy more face lotions just to try them. I stopped myself from doing it, so I feel good about that thanks to you🙂
Proud of you girl... great job. This is very helpful.
I appreciate that!! 💰
Thank you for sharing with us Nicole! Always enjoy your videos! Love&Light from California ❤❤
Thank you so much! 😊💗
Love this Nicole ❤ very helpful
Absolutely fabulous, Nicole. Money saved in these days. 😊❤
Thank you so much!!🥰
Well I didn’t spend a dime on myself but the groceries and eating out was way over because of prepping for the ice storm and a kid in the hospital for 6 days. But those things can’t be helped and admitting you flubbed is the first step of improvement for the next month 💪🏻 Let’s do this! (And February is the shortest month so less days to spend 😂)
Anything you're doing is better when you were doing nothing! Remember that! Keep going! We got this💗
Watch less is now by the minimalists! Changed everything for me
love this new series -
Thank you!!
Such an interesting video! Very eye-opening
So excited for this video!!
You look so cute today love the hair❤
@chrishingson3064 thank you so much🥹🫶💗
You're so REAL. 😊
Thank you! Always keep is 100% with y'all!
Thank you for sharing your journey with us. It's been a big help for me and my family! Congratulations on saving so much money with being more mindful of your spending. I'm trying to do the same. My weakness is target, trader joes and amazon. I stayed out of target and trader joes this month. Going in those stores are too much of a temptation for me .
Your hair looks fantastic
Thank you so much!🫶🥹
Great video. You inspired me to empty my freezer and only have one extra per item. Money saved💰
I did buy a walking pad but that’s it. And I had already planned to buy that one thing. I don’t get my nails done and I color my own hair, so I felt good about that. I also deleted Instagram to keep myself from seeing all the other stuff. Cancelled Amazon prime, Disney, and Netflix. Just gonna rotate them thru the year instead.
Hi I watched your new no buy video and it did inspire me to do the same, like stop spending money I used to be a daily spender on silly things I did not need. I didn't make a list but I just kept mental track of what I don't want to spend on, and it done good for most of the month, I bought two make up products and three pairs of jeans that were needed ( I had to chuck away a pair of favorite jeans they had holes in them and they needed to go so that justified my purchase of jeans). But seriously I used to spend like you, amazon, sephora, bath and bodyworks i have an enormous amounts of make up and bath and body works. I get it I do, and I am cutting back on the spending like bigtime. Lynn/ Canada
😮 Oh boy. Been looking forward to this one. 👏👍 I have stuck with my no buy about 99%. I did do a couple of stocking up buys when there were really good sales but it’s stuff we will definitely use up within a month or two. I also stopped by Goodwill and bought more kitchen towels. I couldn’t resist though, I scored a brand new, with tag set of fall/Christmas towels by 1Canoe2 for 99 cents that sell for 22 frigging dollars! Who pays that? Anyway, I have easily saved $100.00 by staying off Amazon, using up what I have and sticking to my meal plan, grocery list.🎉 Things that I reached for, then stopped myself: a cute little oven mitt that had bees on it, discounted ant-frizz hair spritzer, colas (sticking to water, basic, unflavored), cat toy, mixed nuts.
You did AMAZING! I am so proud of you!🙌
@@NicoleBurgessThank you. You did a phenomenal job. 🎉
I started this last year but I haven’t really tracked. Except that my debt has gone down.
I love your channel ❤️ 😊
@peggycarnes-s8q thank you so much🥹🫶
I deleted the Amazon app from my phone. It has helped so much. I know have to go turn on my computer if I have the urge to go on Amazon. That usually deters me. I love your channe. You are the only one I watch religiously!
Super smart!!! Thank you SO much! That means a lot!!
Yes on the amazon addiction. I've been trying to stay off it.
It's a real struggle!!!
Congratulations on the super save!!!
@@MadisonBriggsArtchick thank you!
Literally had TONS of stuff in my Amazon cart and you helped me rethink if I really need it!!! THANK YOU! Love the game idea, too. I'm the same way! My goal is to shock my hubby with our next creadit card statement with how low the balance is! 🤣
Yes!!!!!
Girllllll…..sleep shopping Amazon? Guilty! LOL….i have been doing much better this month….i started reading when i am getting tired and not picking up my phone and it has been working 🎉 You have great ideas and you looked gorgeous today ❤
You're doing great Cathy! Keep it going! and, thank you so much!!
We've been eating out of the pantry a ton. I even got my hubby's on board. I wrote a big list of all the meals we could make out of what we already have and every time we make one of them I cross them off the list so we've made into a little game and had more variety
That's such a smart idea! 💰
My husband likes to cook. I started making the "possibilities list" to give him ideas, otherwise he would be running to the store for one ingredient. Now I'm thinking I need to prioritize the menus that include foods that will go bad the soonest. We just need to remember if we make something not on the list to mark off what needed those ingredients. It's been very helpful for us.
I Think about you when I want to buy something and I don't need it! Thanks!
@@raeanolson5221 😆 that's such a compliment! Love it!
I ran over here so fast.
😙💗🫶
When I go shopping for clothes household items etc, I equate myself to a hunter. I am hunting for the sale, clearance. I will steak my prey and wait for it to get marked down. I enjoy it. I like getting my receipt and seeing all the mark downs. I paid 49$ for Walmart delivery at the end of last year after talking to some co workers about the convenience and I’m glad I did because I got really sick in December and used to get cold medicine, Kleenex,cough drops, soup. It came in handy. Ive been just shopping at Walmart this year. I’m not sure I am saving as much as I can since I am skipping Aldi. But when I shop at Aldi, I always have to somewhere else for some things Aldi does not have. I find shopping on line is helping because I am just getting the things I need for the meal plan and not seeing something that sounds good, but, wasn’t on the plan.
I hear u about trying to save money and things breaking. My faucet water purifier broke and we found that the cat must have knocked my hubby's trimmer razor thing off the bathroom counter into the garbage and we didn't notice cuz it just up and disappeared and I looked everywhere- stupid things that can only go wrong when ur trying to save lol
i use a pressure cooker alot shop sales pretend that you senior try shopping only once a month for main thing just picking up things like milk and little things doing the month
Thank you for this !! Amazon and Temu problem here... I have done a lot better this month! Can we talk about how good your hair looks ? ! 😊
That's awesome! Keep it up!! Thank you so much about my hair🥹🫶
Omg!! You are right! When you compared your food addiction to shopping addiction, a huge lightbulb went off for me. I have so many candles and so much body care and I constantly go to TJ Maxx and buy more. I don’t need it. I’m going to try to do a No Buy February. Even if I just stop mindlessly spending for the month at TJ Maxx, Hobby lobby, Amazon, all the places I love to go I’m guessing I can start to build my savings up again.
I also canceled my subscription to PicMonkey… Can you please tell me what app you use for your thumbnails now?
I understand the addiction to food, I’m trying to do everything to stop eating out but it’s just so good and I want burgers everyday!! Any tips?😂❤❤
I’ve overall done very well, but I did have some unexpected purchases this month. 1. I decided to get more chickens, so I ordered some chicks and another portable chicken run $180.00. 2. I Then had the opportunity to have someone till up a 25x25’ area for free. This will be another garden space for me, but cost $400.00 for soil amending, silage tarp, and seeds. I’m not beating myself up too much though, because I know these things will save me money in the long run.
I canceled 3 subscriptions and monthly car wash membership. Saved about $70.
I was able to move an ENTIRE paycheck to my savings!
Damn girl, slay😎💰
You've done great!! I've seen people stretch their food budget by utilizing lentils, beans or tofu with their ground meat. I saw one lady mix half a block of tofu with ground meat for burgers. I make loaded nachos with some ground beef and some beans.
@@mjking9019 I can't get with the tofu🤢 definitely adding more beans in the rotation!
@@NicoleBurgess I don't mind tofu, but I do get it.
You done dag on good sweet beautiful friend ❤
New to your channel here. Wanting to get back to the no spending months. Thank you for all the info, this hit me hard.
What do you do with the money you save??
Thank you
@cassandraduncan2947 even with my "excess" spending last year, we have been good at putting money away in savings over the years. We also have some money invested to where we have made money as well. No plans necessary for the money not spent. Just save as much as we can. We do have several trips lined up this year to make those memories instead of materials! Happy you're here💗
Great video!! Thank you for doing this. I am easily influenced so thank you for talking about that. Going to unfollow some people now. Thank you!
I didn't set up a strict no buy low buy but I have dramatically cut back on all purchases and zero credit card usage since Jan 1st!!
You're killin it! Keep it up!
Best thing that could have happened to me was getting my debit card numbers stolen . Not even kidding lol
I really struggled with my no spend, with the withdrawal of no shopping. I only spent 200.00 on groceries at the last week. Still saving for a car.
It's still a great improvement! You got this💪🏻
Holy Cats Nicole that’s Great!! I saved over $256 dollars more this January than January 2024! 🥳
@@michellesmith9662 that's amazing💰😍
@@NicoleBurgess thank you!! ❤️
I spent less on groceries (not as many sales) and more on vet bills (cats new med has a nausea side effect). I did buy 3-4 balls of yarn, but I also finished 3 balls and used up a good chunk of other balls. Somehow the yarn left takes up more space than it did before. 🤷♀️
Feb has started off strong with a vet visit due to the new kitten jumping with all 4 paws onto a cactus. (I think she thought it was a scratching post.)
I'm thankfully not super influencable. I'm finding I don't like having a ton of stuff, stuff stresses me out. And being super picky about what I like means I can look through things in the store and just keep looking. (I have a gift card to a store, went in yesterday and bought nothing...so now I'm annoyed I still have the gift card 😂) I've got a brownie mix sitting out on the cupboard...for like 2 weeks...brownies sound good...but I don't want to do the dishes, so no brownies lol.
My problem is I indulge in deals and my crutch is I’m like “oh I’m gonna buy this anyways so I might as well” or “omg this is soooo cheap!” Like I have 100 bottles of perfume and body sprays I do NOT need another one😂
@@ashleymccloud295 yup!! You gotta stop the cycle!
good job. I have always saved. Turned almost extreme minimalist when my DD was born. I can go weeks without spending a cent other than groceries. I find the act of choice more powerful than having the thing. Sure I can buy what ever I want, and to me that is enough. I do not want the thing. I want time and freedom to do the things I want to do. Fly to the EU...yes please, go backpacking, yes please. No I do not need that thing that is being sold to me...nope
❤
I just couldn't do it. My local grocery had an amazing sale, I mean once in a cheapskates lifetime! I only bought sale items, I spent $189 but saved $285. I mean once in a lifetime sale. United Supermarkets in Lubbock Texas. Other than that I bought a gallon of milk and a head of lettuce so I feel like I won.
I didn't do well at all. 🤣😅 But that's what grace is for, right???
1% better!! Remember that🫶💗
Question.... what cinnamon pills do u prefer? I'm wanting to start taking them but all the choices are overwhelming
Doesn't matter which brand. Just make sure its the Ceylon kind
Hi Nicole I'm addicted to cleaning things out throwing things out that I don't need cleaning things out. What I will do if I don't wear something I will get rid of it and bring it to thrift store we have they will give your store credet . I'm the kind of women that's sesencebull. I wouldn't say I'm minimalist although though the thought has cross my mind . I don't even buy decorations unless they get old start to stink and or get broken then I will buy . I'm just good at mangageing my money . 💰 I'll do something for my self maybe once month . If that I don't know I can get by with out alot cause never had alot in my life growing up so I guess that's why . I can say look at something say I don't really need it and walk away . Call it will power . 🔋. As Normal I allways work with what I have for groceries in my freezer until it's time to stock up . I only get extra food when I'm hosting family or friends at my house . I'm very selective with my money. Extremely selective
👍
