Choose a day with no non-essential purchases.

Why it can help
A no-spend day is a simple way to notice habitual purchases without pretending all spending is bad.
How to try it
Choose a realistic day, plan food and travel in advance, and exclude essentials such as bills, medicine and necessary transport.
Things to consider
If delaying a purchase only shifts it to tomorrow, it is not a saving. Use the day to notice what you genuinely did not miss.
