I go through phases where I’m really good at not spending my money and then 💥 BAM. I get a “fix” of wanting to shop and spend my money. I’m trying to get out of that mindset.
Daisy Paisies I use to be like that but then noticed that spending happened every time I felt stressed. Now that I know the reason behind my behaviour, I’m also able to control it.
Shadow Gang Tarots same! I get bored of my style every now and then. I used to be like that especially with my hair. I’d get my hair dyed and then I’d say” well now I need hair products to upkeep it!” “I need Cute hair accessories too!” Thank goodness I stopped dying my hair 😅
Yo, you’re the only RUclipsr who doesn’t make me want to go out and buy stuff or take a trip, etc...(this is a great thing)...Thanks for spreading the word on living minimally...I’m nowhere near where you are but you’re definitely the goal...✌🏽
I ran across your channel b/c it came up when I was looking into wardrobe capsules. I have watched several of your videos and am so impressed with your maturity and sincerity. You are speaking such *truth* to people your age, and I hope they are listening. I am 71 but only chronologically! I am in the midst of purging and organizing my house. I have always loved beautiful things and admittedly it's hard to let some of the stuff go. Not clothes - that's easy, but getting rid of a lifetime of china and things I bought to make our homes beautiful is not as easy! It is, however, very freeing. The amount of stuff I own has begun to disgust me in recent years. I'm tired of being ruled by material things. My wardrobe is ridiculous. I am deciding what items give me joy and intend to let the things that don't enrich my life be a blessing to someone else! What my children don't want, I am of course donating. Fortunately, I don't need the money, but I do want to simplify and live in keeping with my views on sustainability and the environment. Ironically, I've been preaching about wealth inequality for years without taking an honest look at my own life. My husband is on board with me and has given away tons of stuff himself! You are a force to be reckoned with, girl. I wish you great success and happiness. You are fortunate to have figured it out this early in your life. Because you are young and have a young peer group, I'm sure you see some shitty comments. (I saw where you had to suspend the comments on one of your videos). It's a shame that some folks feel the need to be mean and demeaning, but you're trying to reach them. And I know you are getting your message across to a lot of your followers. I am a proud new subscriber! You keep doing you!
I just recently did this and honestly I am starting to feel alot better. I started to choose comfort over fashion and I honestly feel more comfortable in being able to just go in my drawer and grab anything and feel comfortable in it. I feel less cluttered and less trapped. it's a great feeling 😊
Thanks for this video. I have a problem with having too many clothes. I’ve slowly been getting rid of stuff. I have a problem with buying new clothes and I never end up wearing them. I just like the thrill of buying new clothes. I’ve been better about it lately.
You should definitely recycle your old ripped or stained clothes! Lots of cities have drop off sites where they recycle old clothes and then they wont end up in a landfill!
Tiffany Hindman they are typically sold to impoverished countries creating landfill problems in other countries. Look it up. I was saddened to learn this
@@cdb48340 Well i dont know about clothes from usa but from uk, german they are sold to my country and in my country there are a lot of second hand shops which people actually love - not because of poverty. So buying used clothes is giving them second life. Except tshirt, socks, pants and most of my shoes/bras (from sh i buy only new ones) 95% of my wardrobe is just from second hand shops, all jeans, sweaters, jumpers, dresses, jackets for all seasons, shorts, pijama shorts and so on. If they were not sold to my country they would finish on a junk pile or would be burned. All the clothes which sh dont sell to people to wear they are sold to producing companies to use it as rugs for cleaning machines, so its also second life, at least they dont buy special rugs for cleaning machines.
Kyra, I live this way, I will never go back to owning too much, I have very little clothes, but looks like I have so much, solids and accessories are the way to go. I love being minimal. I have a capsule wardrobe. Your advice is spot on.. Everything is on sale because clothes are made so cheap. I would rather have quality over quantity Once you are minimal with your clothes, and closet, everything follows suit in the rest of the home
I just found your channel and it so soothing. It’s such a difficult time in my life now and your videos just takes my mid off things - thanks for your wide advise!
Great video!! Your closet is major inspiration for me to go through my clothes and to stop shopping. Your videos are so calming and I appreciate it when you don't use background music. I'm always distracted by background music. Thanks!!
I use the Stylebook app to create outfits with the clothes I already have. It saves so much money and you can see the cost per wear. It takes a while to input all your items but I’ve been using it about 3 years and love it 🥰
Needed this right now. Was about to browse some online sites, to just buy something for noooo good reason. My clothing cabinet is bursting and I don't think I need a reason for it to explode. Thank you, Kyra! Gonna be playing this while I do my work! ✨
For me knowing my style what fit me best and color palette had definitely helped me buying less, i know what to avoid which could sometimes mean avoiding everything in the store. I love slow fashion and I've switched to second hand which made it even more fun cause i now feel my style is unique and so ME not a replica of every other girl in the city.
I think focusing on something else that you want to spend you money on will help also. Traveling is my true love! If I have a trip planned or a big purchase I want to make I think about that when I go to buy things like clothes or makeup. I also like to think about how many hours of work an item costs and think about if it is worth it in terms of work hours and that helps me not to buy things a lot of the time. Having staple items in neutral colors is also a great way to be able to wear the same clothing and not need new items. Thanks for the video!
Buy solid colors and accessorize! A couple of belts or scarves. I remember buying something just because I could. Of course, when I realized what I had done it was too late. As soon as I got home I knew I would never wear it. It looked horrible! I didn't even bother to try it on. Looking at your closet, I think I still have too many clothes. I still have a lot of unnecessary items I threw out so many socks that didn't have partners, but I still have about 20 pair. Truth is though that I only wear the black ones which is about 10 socks. Thanks, Kyra for another inspiring video.
So true about sale stuff. I used to wait for sale every single minute in different online clothing but got ober that thing. Im a new into minimalism and i know its a continuous process . Atm im just using all the stuff that ive got. Especially cosmetics and beauty products. Im thinking of shifting to more environmentally friendly products .
Very good video. Really needed this. Alot of women's shelters will take gently worn items and cosmetics, the kind you buy, try once and say it's not for me. You don't want to take anything really worn or used.
Any advice when you have decluttered and are content with your items but feel like you constantly have the same outfit look. What do you do to spruce it up without buying anything new?
Monica Ortiz I know you mentioned not buying anything new but my advice would be to shop at a thrift store for some statement pieces. Maybe buy a statement bag, heel, belt, or jewelry just to make your outfit pop!
When you donate undergarments (eg underwear) it is not resold. It is sent to a facility and reused for rags or chopped upped and used for other products. When you throw away those items they end up in a landfill. Don't be embarrassed - just clean it and donate it!
I use to have so much stuff like I was a pack rat! But then as I got older I’m 20 now with two kids and I just stoped buying so much unnecessary stuff mainly because I hate when things look cluttered and I’m trying to look for something and things will fall all over the place also I really hate things looking messy so yeah that’s how I started making it a habit of just having way less unnecessary clutter. Your videos are awesome! I’ve subscribed and turned on my notifications.
The problem I have is purchase so many clothes that I don't even remember to wear cuz most of those are all end up plies in the back of my drawer cuz I have too many ,sometimes I even forgot the similar design of clothes I have like multiples of those at home already ,but I just purchase more stuff when it comes to season changes ,I know I should be satisfied with what I have ,but my major problem is hoarding too many clothes which I even forgot to wear in the end ,your vid is so helpful for me to get rid of this shopping addiction mindset
You really are pretty... Great that you discovered this at a young age, wish I had known this younger, I would have saved a lot and not wasted so much but I am on this journey too... Better late than never...
Useful with so many helpful tips. Subscribed! We are groomed by companies to spend money we don’t have to impress people we don’t know or care about. Seriously no one takes that close a look at what we wear except ourselves. We need to be less narcissistic and self obsessed.
So its ok to buy fast fashion if you use it for a long time or even better thrift - just to make an example I have a several things which have lasted since 1989 which are sk fast fashion so it totally depends on the quality and the materials.
I agree! The graphic design on one of my H&M tops started to crack and come off within a month or 2. But other items like simple sweaters have lasted so long!
This video really makes me want to go through my clothes. Sitting here watching this I know I have so many clothes I don’t even use anymore that could be put to better use by someone who actually needs it.
I had a bad lularoe buying problem but no more. I have gotten rid of over half my clothes, things not worn, still with tags, etc. Crazy. It was hard to give away t the cost it was but live and learn. I been wearing solid and neutral colors and no one noticed. Lol
Be aware of buying to Cure anxiety AND try to find a better substitute, and try to help your anxiety! For me getting into the environmentalist movement and becoming an social rights and democracy activist is where its at together with meditation and also learning to Style things in a major way. Still love clothes always Will and I see it as wasteful to get rid of perfectly good clothes so use what I have swap, thrift, remake or even buy new if its something ive identified as filling a gap, go to a lot of museum exhibitions etc and have learned a lot about what good quality is , how clothes are made etc but try to be easy on yourself and your body ( sierra shultzie has made a lot of youtube clips about how clothes fit on diffrent Bodies as justine leconte says a designer and youtuber its not your body its how the clothes fit )To me if you really like being a minimalist be a minimalist but watch out so that you dont replace one addiction with another.
Great tips. I am trying to de-clutter my closets and minimalize. However, when I see such an empty and bare closet it scares me. I think what if Iost my job or there was a recession and then I wouldn't have all my clothes and "stuff". Sounds silly and I suppose it is a mind-set I need to over-come. I'm still a work in progress and still have too much to donate. Thanks for a great video.
You can put used clean underwear in the clothing recycling bins that are typically located in many cities near the regular donation bins. Another idea might be homeless shelter, not Goodwill but a true homeless shelter, they give those items away to those that are the most desperate, they are grateful for clean clothing, they don't care so much about stains or wear and tear. Just a thought. :)
Nice video :) I‘d be really interested in what you laundry „routine“ looks like 🤔 I just cannot imagine how to do my laundry with this low amount of clothes, since I sort my laundry by color (at least bright and dark/red, so that my white clothes to not turn pink) and temperature (higher temperature for undies..). Do you do that kind of thing or just put everything together? Since I‘m living on my own, I always have problems with getting my washing machine filled and I feel like it’s a waste, turning it on for just a couple of slips or 5 shirts.. so I‘m really curious how this is working out for you 😀
If you wash low temperature you do not consume much (it is the temperature and not the movement that costs) and clothes clean better when they can move in the washing machine freely. A load for every colour and every materia... your clothes will last for ever...
This is an honest question: don't your clothes wear out fast? I mean fabric no matter how good the quality, eventually gets worn out with more frequent wear. I love your channel, btw, and i am a subscriber.☺
Thank you 💕 and yes once an item of mine wears out or rips or anything like that then I will purchase something to recover that item in my wardrobe, but lately I’ve been air drying my clothes and I feel like that as pro longed the life of my clothes. So not many rips or anything drastic like that in a while :) also I don’t put my clothes to wash right away like my jeans I wear twice before washing them and same as shirts because I feel like wearing clothes for a couple hours doesn’t make it that dirty lol I know some people that wear an outfit for a good 4 hours then throw it in the hamper. I try to be wise when it comes to laundry and just clothes in general because it can be pretty pricey to purchase and wash.
Wow I love this accent I’m Australian can someone tell me if this is Brooklyn or New York or…? Also I think it’s hilarious that she has a little black dress in case she has to go to a funeral God forbid 🤣
Kyra Ann I’ve been there! Did a trip to Harvard and a history tour re the Tea Party. Stunning town. I actually have a New Zealand accent as I’m born and raised, there!
you shouldn't throw away your undergarments! When it's ripped or can not be worn anymore, sure you can through away. But depending on where you live, undergarments such as bras and underwear are so rare to find in charity shops etc. as a refugee or a homeless person you find shirts, pants etc. so easily but not underwear. So even though you don't like second hand, someone else might need it. Just ask next time if they can use some and then decide! :)
I have a problem with buying clothes when I'm stressed... I know the problem behind this behaviour but how do I stop it? It's a strong urge that seems to ignore all my logical senses. I'm miserable when I look at how much clothes I have in my closet. However, I çan't bear to give them away as well.
Hi! I had the same issue and I was so embarrassed when I decluttered my closet and found items with the tags on. What helped me is ask myself have I used this in the last six months! If you say no put it in a bag and donate. You already lost the money when you purchased it! I donated items and have some stuff like makeup given to my family. Also rip all your credit cards and unsubscribe from any retail emails. Trust me you will feel better !
What I find helpful for clothing is to only purchase, rompers,dresses or jumpsuits because your not ever having to pay for extra tops to match your Jeans or your not spending time finding 3 different food to match your skirt ect.
That’s true but only if you live in warmer areas, I would die here in MASS with wearing rompers or dresses right now the other day it was -7 degrees 🥶 even with me having my winter jacket on I was still cold.
I would grab that card from under the madrass so fast my mom will fly out of bed out of fear 😂😂😂 I also would buy 100 black dresses 😂😂 But thats all good advice, that's just me not having any selfdicipline 😭
i absolutely love your videos and please only take this constructively but the music you use in your videos seems to be distracting as it repeats every few seconds. please reconsider but just a thought :)
What about if you replace it? I replaced mine, I went to the bank and requested a new one, and I haven’t active it yet! I’m planning to do it until I pay it off! So far is working for me, I buy everything with my debit card which makes me think twice if I really want to spend that money. Maybe this might work for you too☺️
It was public awhile back then I started to get nasty comments and horrible messages. Unfortunately I had to put it private so I can see who to accept and monitor the comments on there and not to mention so many accounts that where not real and trying to sell there products threw my pics. So sorry for the inconvenience
When I see clothes in my closet which I spend $100 per piece but never wear, I just wanna rip my brain 🧠 out and ask the old me: what is wrong with you???!!!
Fast fashion isn't the exact piece a celeb wears cos they always wear designer. They are extremely fast cheap replicas. I swear PLT had a kimk dress the Day after she wore it and celebrated that. I felt sick cos of all the pll who must have suffered for that one dress
@@Kyraann. i am so sorry, i didn't want to sound so impolite. I am just new to the whole thing and everything i see about minamilism is just far beyond my expectations, i know these goals are not realistic for me! I hope i find something in the middel, respekt for what you achieved so far
hey kira big fan! just a tip: you should credit where you get your info. it seems like you were inspired by the Konmari method in which case you should definitely say so.
Never heard of her before but what inspired me to do this video is the last episode I watched of 9-1-1 and the charter chimney was saying “does this spark joy” sorry not trying to still ideas over here sorry you guys feel that way I’m going to see who that person is what’s her RUclips channel? I wish I would of gave the show 9-1-1 the credit for inspiring me but I didn’t want people to say what is that lol not sure if anyone watched it.
I actually do for my gas and lights 🤦🏻♀️ it sucks but in my area for some odd reason if you have a house or an apartment you can’t use credit cards or PayPal. I honestly don’t think you can pay major bills with Paypal😂 come to think of it 🤷🏻♀️ I’ll stick with my debit card because that’s also how I pay rent to
Sorry I’m trying so hard to take the traffic noise out since a lot people hated the peeping and the loud truck noises. I guess you can’t win 😩 I’m hoping I can get a mic soon just been saving up for one. Maybe that will solve all the complaints.
I go through phases where I’m really good at not spending my money and then 💥 BAM. I get a “fix” of wanting to shop and spend my money. I’m trying to get out of that mindset.

I agree with all your ideas. I wish i had learned this at your age and not until my 40s. You are a smart and wise young woman.
kelly dickie don’t feel too bad, I’m 53 and just recently learning.😩😊
My best friend actually froze her credit card in a block of ice in her freezer! 😂 whatever it takes!
Smart as hell lol.
Or just cut it in half.
Haha like the movie Confessions of A Shopaholic 😂
i memorized mine for online shopping LMFAO
I cut mine up lol

Monica Ortiz I know you mentioned not buying anything new but my advice would be to shop at a thrift store for some statement pieces. Maybe buy a statement bag, heel, belt, or jewelry just to make your outfit pop!
Try different shirts with different bottoms, maybe watch some videos about how to tie/tuck shirts, this does give a different kind of style
And scarfs they work magic in your outfits
Create a capsule wardrobe. There are so many videos in capsule wardrobe and how to create so many outfits of one article of clothing
layering! the same outfit can look completely different with a shirt under it, a flannel around your waist, or a jacket over the top.
Cut up credit cards 💳 until you can pay it off.
Don’t hangout with friends that like to shop and buy a bunch of clothes. Do something else
When you donate undergarments (eg underwear) it is not resold. It is sent to a facility and reused for rags or chopped upped and used for other products. When you throw away those items they end up in a landfill. Don't be embarrassed - just clean it and donate it!

Ever notice a closet tour and next video they’re wearing something that wasn’t in their “capsule”? Lol. Thanks for being honest!!

the other problem with fast fashion is that it largely uses sweatshop labor!

Still love clothes always Will and I see it as wasteful to get rid of perfectly good clothes so use what I have swap, thrift, remake or even buy new if its something ive identified as filling a gap, go to a lot of museum exhibitions etc and have learned a lot about what good quality is , how clothes are made etc but try to be easy on yourself and your body ( sierra shultzie has made a lot of youtube clips about how clothes fit on diffrent Bodies as justine leconte says a designer and youtuber its not your body its how the clothes fit )To me if you really like being a minimalist be a minimalist but watch out so that you dont replace one addiction with another.
I recently went through a closet purge. I’m trying to find basics but neutral colors. This video couldn’t have come at a better time for me ! 😅
now i want to get rid of almost all of my clotes
I just wish all the ads were at the end. so I can focus on your lovely video without getting interrupted by adds during the video!
Great tips. I am trying to de-clutter my closets and minimalize. However, when I see such an empty and bare closet it scares me. I think what if Iost my job or there was a recession and then I wouldn't have all my clothes and "stuff". Sounds silly and I suppose it is a mind-set I need to over-come. I'm still a work in progress and still have too much to donate. Thanks for a great video.
You will work out how to live with less, so if a recession does hit, you will not be lost.
We’ve been trained since birth to buy stuff. Don’t feel bad.
You can put used clean underwear in the clothing recycling bins that are typically located in many cities near the regular donation bins. Another idea might be homeless shelter, not Goodwill but a true homeless shelter, they give those items away to those that are the most desperate, they are grateful for clean clothing, they don't care so much about stains or wear and tear. Just a thought. :)
You have amazing hair :)
Nice video :)
I‘d be really interested in what you laundry „routine“ looks like 🤔 I just cannot imagine how to do my laundry with this low amount of clothes, since I sort my laundry by color (at least bright and dark/red, so that my white clothes to not turn pink) and temperature (higher temperature for undies..). Do you do that kind of thing or just put everything together? Since I‘m living on my own, I always have problems with getting my washing machine filled and I feel like it’s a waste, turning it on for just a couple of slips or 5 shirts.. so I‘m really curious how this is working out for you 😀
If you wash low temperature you do not consume much (it is the temperature and not the movement that costs) and clothes clean better when they can move in the washing machine freely. A load for every colour and every materia... your clothes will last for ever...
This is an honest question: don't your clothes wear out fast? I mean fabric no matter how good the quality, eventually gets worn out with more frequent wear.
I love your channel, btw, and i am a subscriber.☺
Thank you 💕 and yes once an item of mine wears out or rips or anything like that then I will purchase something to recover that item in my wardrobe, but lately I’ve been air drying my clothes and I feel like that as pro longed the life of my clothes. So not many rips or anything drastic like that in a while :) also I don’t put my clothes to wash right away like my jeans I wear twice before washing them and same as shirts because I feel like wearing clothes for a couple hours doesn’t make it that dirty lol I know some people that wear an outfit for a good 4 hours then throw it in the hamper. I try to be wise when it comes to laundry and just clothes in general because it can be pretty pricey to purchase and wash.
Kyra Ann Thank you for your reply..☺👍
I like your videos, they are really relaxing 😊 greets
Thank you :)
I enjoy your content! Thank you for uploading.
Wow I love this accent I’m Australian can someone tell me if this is Brooklyn or New York or…? Also I think it’s hilarious that she has a little black dress in case she has to go to a funeral God forbid 🤣
I’m from Boston 😁 BTW I love the Australian accent 🙌🏼🤍
Kyra Ann I’ve been there! Did a trip to Harvard and a history tour re the Tea Party. Stunning town. I actually have a New Zealand accent as I’m born and raised, there!
@@rush7777me7777 New Zealander here.😀
can’t wait to see your try on haul
Where did you get the sock and underwater holder? Nice video!
you shouldn't throw away your undergarments! When it's ripped or can not be worn anymore, sure you can through away. But depending on where you live, undergarments such as bras and underwear are so rare to find in charity shops etc. as a refugee or a homeless person you find shirts, pants etc. so easily but not underwear. So even though you don't like second hand, someone else might need it. Just ask next time if they can use some and then decide! :)
Lol, that's true, I live In AZ where its a dessert state
I have a problem with buying clothes when I'm stressed... I know the problem behind this behaviour but how do I stop it? It's a strong urge that seems to ignore all my logical senses.
I'm miserable when I look at how much clothes I have in my closet. However, I çan't bear to give them away as well.
Hi! I had the same issue and I was so embarrassed when I decluttered my closet and found items with the tags on. What helped me is ask myself have I used this in the last six months! If you say no put it in a bag and donate. You already lost the money when you purchased it! I donated items and have some stuff like makeup given to my family. Also rip all your credit cards and unsubscribe from any retail emails. Trust me you will feel better !
Yeah sam
What I find helpful for clothing is to only purchase, rompers,dresses or jumpsuits because your not ever having to pay for extra tops to match your Jeans or your not spending time finding 3 different food to match your skirt ect.
That’s true but only if you live in warmer areas, I would die here in MASS with wearing rompers or dresses right now the other day it was -7 degrees 🥶 even with me having my winter jacket on I was still cold.
Hey I saw ur video its amazzing ur videos are so real.. Luv from Indian .. I have leqrnt a lot..
loooovvvveeee your channel :)
I would grab that card from under the madrass so fast my mom will fly out of bed out of fear 😂😂😂
I also would buy 100 black dresses 😂😂
But thats all good advice, that's just me not having any selfdicipline 😭
Oh and make up pallets r my problem 😂 I'm working on it😀
want do you have cleclett perfume and body spray and want do you have in general.
I thought I have a small wardrobe and it is many times larger than yours. Help!
i absolutely love your videos and please only take this constructively but the music you use in your videos seems to be distracting as it repeats every few seconds. please reconsider but just a thought :)
I call it to close your mind wallet, once you enter to a store with your mind wallet open you are lost : D
Sadly, I have my credit card number memorized.
Me too...difficult to unlearn it.
you could always try writing it down incorrectly over and over so you misremember the exact order and end up second guessing if the numbers are right?
@@user-oq6ol5fi2w hahaha! yes!
What about if you replace it? I replaced mine, I went to the bank and requested a new one, and I haven’t active it yet! I’m planning to do it until I pay it off! So far is working for me, I buy everything with my debit card which makes me think twice if I really want to spend that money. Maybe this might work for you too☺️
Are you Italian or from Boston? Trying to figure out the accent lol
Boston :)
I really need to stop buying t shirts with logos and stuff there not bad its just that its too many :p
Mismatched socks..... THE HORROR!!
Hey! Why did u make ur insta private? People like me who doesn't have an insta account cannot see the pics posted by u. Please open it.
It was public awhile back then I started to get nasty comments and horrible messages. Unfortunately I had to put it private so I can see who to accept and monitor the comments on there and not to mention so many accounts that where not real and trying to sell there products threw my pics. So sorry for the inconvenience
What ...what’s new??
What happened to your lamp 😮
I moved it to the other end of the desk :)
We think so much alike.
When I see clothes in my closet which I spend $100 per piece but never wear, I just wanna rip my brain 🧠 out and ask the old me: what is wrong with you???!!!
Do you wear a uniform to work?
Yes, she does. :)
go through
the fact that i’ve memorized my card info...
Fast fashion isn't the exact piece a celeb wears cos they always wear designer. They are extremely fast cheap replicas. I swear PLT had a kimk dress the Day after she wore it and celebrated that. I felt sick cos of all the pll who must have suffered for that one dress
Well i want to stop spending but i don't want to have so little clothes !!
That’s ok, everyone is different !!
@@Kyraann. i am so sorry, i didn't want to sound so impolite. I am just new to the whole thing and everything i see about minamilism is just far beyond my expectations, i know these goals are not realistic for me! I hope i find something in the middel, respekt for what you achieved so far
hey kira big fan! just a tip: you should credit where you get your info. it seems like you were inspired by the Konmari method in which case you should definitely say so.
autummyo
I was thinking the same, sort of like plagiarism because she’s not crediting who she got the idea from
Never heard of her before but what inspired me to do this video is the last episode I watched of 9-1-1 and the charter chimney was saying “does this spark joy” sorry not trying to still ideas over here sorry you guys feel that way I’m going to see who that person is what’s her RUclips channel? I wish I would of gave the show 9-1-1 the credit for inspiring me but I didn’t want people to say what is that lol not sure if anyone watched it.
There is PayPal you don't need debit card ! 🤣
I actually do for my gas and lights 🤦🏻♀️ it sucks but in my area for some odd reason if you have a house or an apartment you can’t use credit cards or PayPal. I honestly don’t think you can pay major bills with Paypal😂 come to think of it 🤷🏻♀️ I’ll stick with my debit card because that’s also how I pay rent to
Or just stay away from the mall. 😆
I hate the background music
Sorry I’m trying so hard to take the traffic noise out since a lot people hated the peeping and the loud truck noises. I guess you can’t win 😩 I’m hoping I can get a mic soon just been saving up for one. Maybe that will solve all the complaints.
Kyra Ann I now realize that I came off as super rude. Still love your videos
