Re: Voluntary Simplicity Movement
IMO start small, growing up with a 'gotta have it' and a 'save for someday' it can be hard to switch to less stuff, but I think cheaper.
DH is a pack rat, he comes by it honestly, genetically! but little by little he has stopped complaining aboiut my getting rid of stuff, which since he can't name one thing he wants that I tossed I figure I did good (unfortunatly I can name two things, but two is pretty small compared to truckloads of stuff!)
and I find that it is easier to NOT buy stuff when I know I will get annoyed at it sitting unused and get rid of it later.
