Good Deal vs. Extra Stuff I Don't Need

On a mission to spend a Wal-Mart giftcard, I entered the exercise department.  I wanted a new Leslie Sansone walking DVD.  On dark or inclement mornings, I walk inside to her enthusiastic tempos instead of braving the outdoors.  I have every line memorized, believe me, so thought a new, fresh DVD would make mornings a little more motivating.

Single copies were sold out.  However, a three pack remained with 3 DVDs, a stretch band, weight chart, diet plan, and more!  Price wise, it was less than purchasing separate DVDs.  I debated.  My simplify mindset then kicked into gear.  Why have three AND another band when you only need one?  Would you really use them all?  I decided to wait.

To NOT bring clutter into the house is a habit we must hone constantly.

  1. However, if you think you would like the 3 DVDs and it would give you a longer period of time to learn the lyrics by having 3 than 1, you can always buy the set and donate the "...and more" part of the set. Keep the new band to replace the old one. I have heard that those things do wear out.
