Spending that is not about the things

You are not buying the thing. You know that already

The basket at eleven at night does a job: it fills an evening, it gives a small lift, it is something to look forward to. Removing it without noticing what it was doing is why the removal never lasts.

why rules do not hold

The rule addresses the receipt, not the evening

  1. 01

    It is a hobby with a checkout attached

    Browsing fills time, provides a small reward and sometimes counts as socialising. A rule against it takes all of that away and offers nothing back.

  2. 02

    The lift is real and it is short

    Which is why the pattern repeats: the feeling arrives on schedule and departs before the parcel does.

  3. 03

    Guilt makes the next one easier

    A slip that feels like failure ends the attempt, and ending the attempt removes the discomfort. The mechanism is efficient and it is working against you.

how it runs

Three tasks in the morning, one report at night

01

Decide in the morning, not at eleven at night

Three written tasks made while you are rested, so the tired version of you is not the one negotiating.

02

Write what actually happened

Two lines. Including the evenings that went the usual way, which are the informative ones.

03

Be visible to people in the same hundred days

Not accountability as a slogan: simply that somebody reads what you wrote, and notices when you stop writing.

the shape of it

What a hundred days tends to look like

1
entry

Mostly observation. The record usually shows the same two hours of the day again and again.

Day 1–10

Mostly observation. The record usually shows the same two hours of the day again and again.

Day 40

The decisions start being made earlier in the evening, which is where they can still be made.

Day 100

A hundred entries that show what the evenings actually contain, rather than what you assumed.

Three tasks each morning. One report each night. A hundred days of no-spend.

before you sign up

Reasonable questions

Is this about quitting shopping?

No. It is about making the decision consciously and writing down what happened, a hundred days in a row.

What if I buy something anyway?

You write it down. Nothing resets, and the group sees an ordinary entry rather than a confession.

Do you provide a budget?

No. Bring your own numbers and tools. The structure is the daily part.

Is this financial advice?

No, and it is not a substitute for it.

What does it cost?

Pricing is set when the next group opens. Nothing is charged on this page.

The next hundred days start soon

Leave an email and we will write when the group opens. Nothing is charged on this page.
