18 Common Things You DON'T NEED (minimalism, simple living)
I hope this list of 18 common things you DON'T NEED will help you better evaluate the things you choose to buy.
Most of us have all of our basic needs covered, as well as a home and life filled with things that we love, value, and that bring us joy.
If we look beyond those things, I am sure we can find a lot of stuff that we simply don't need.

    If you’re a fan of scented candles like me, I can recommend scented wax melts by yankee candle. In Germany they only cost around 3€ compared to the biggest candles which are around 25€+ and they last very long. Love them.

    I only disagree with the smartphone. ofc it should not be the newest, but also not the oldest. you need important software updates for security sakes. especially when you are doing bank transfers or financing with your mobilephone (like my GF does....). so extra security due to new software updates is important.

    i wish i had know about thrift stores years ago. you can get items with the tags still on them! For a fraction of the cost! If only we could get rid of the stigma.. this would help so many people. I have picked up several Dri fit Under Armour polos for work. $40-50 new, I paid $2-5 each. I can't tell them from new and a few even had tags still on them! Our daughter just furnished half of her new house with goodwill furniture for less than a hundred bucks. You could outfit a whole kitchen with less than a hundred bucks. its crazy how cheap. Steer away from consumerism and buy what you need second hand. Save money and the planet at the same time.

    Glass tupperware.. Buy a few quality pieces and that's all you need. Plastic will have to be bought over and over. Candles.. make your own. It's so easy. We cut wine bottles with cool labels and fill with wax and scent. Fraction of the price of store bought. And breakfast is what is still getting me.. have to figure a way to get off the sugar! Yep.. $2k more a year in my pocket. that would be nice. Take the discount for the store card.. the new limit will add to overall and boost your credit. Use the card once a year and pay off immediately.. win/win.

      Why do we need candles anyway? It’s a fire hazard. We open the windows even in winter, then close them once we get too cold. Keep a gap open during the night.

    For a planner get a cheap notebook with ringband back. On a page just write out the days of a week with dates and plan your week. Since you're writing down dates yourself it doesn't matter if you skip a week or tear out a page and it's not as tedious as a bullet journal.

    I avoid anything that has synthetic fragrance such as scented candles and air fresheners because they contain toxic ingredients such as phtalates, formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, benzene, just to name a few. These ingredients can cause a myriad of health issues. Sadly in America, companies don’t have to disclose all the ingredients that are contained in fragrance.

    all of this low key triggered in some way... most because duh, but not only. The facebook thing I guess is fine although I'm skeptical. These videos are better as minor counterintuitive tricks, like that guy who showered with his dirty clothes (although that's just wacko). "get a savings account and put money in it" or "cut your hair yourself" are kind of waste of my time advices. How about those youtube video making advices huh

      All good man, thanks for the feedback! Like most RUclips channels, this is just a person sharing and communicating ideas to bring together people who are passionate about the same thing, in this case: frugal living and bettering our financial behaviors. There’s a ton of niche channels sharing ideas that may seem like common sense to some, but a new concept for others. I have done a lot of financial coaching for people for free, and a lot of them don’t realize that there’s more room in their budget if they just get a little more creative and implement some ideas like this. So probably this list just wasn’t a fit for you, and that’s fine!

    I’ve just started number 11 the end of last month. It’s a one year long savings account and you can save between £25 and £250 per month and you get 7% interest. It may not be the best rate but it’s locked away and I’ll have £3000 that I put in plus £210 in interest if my maths is correct. I’m not the best saver so this is definitely going to be a challenge to put £250 in every month but it’s going out on payday and getting that money on the 27th of September next year will be brilliant. I’m planning to pay off any debts I have and then put the rest in an online bonus account which is also 7% interest and then starting one again

      7% is crazy high interest! Highest I've heard of last couple years is closer to 3.5~4.0% per year. Make sure you take potential fees into account aswell so as to not get too discouraged when it doesn't add up all the way to 210$ in the end. All the best!
