I think you are doing brilliantly - you managed to *look* without actually buying anything. That is a very strong character you have.
I would find living this promise very hard which is why I am still not signing up to it:) I find shopping calming and I see it as a treat when I am stressed. But I know that's a bit shallow....
I admire all you guys who signed up. How are you getting on with living your promise? Any tips&tricks you can share?
Finding stuff to give away is the part of the promise I'm finding harder. I've located a pile of clothes to get rid of, but it's going to get harder. I'm a bit of a hoarder!
