100 Item Challenge
A great way to limit yourself to necessities is making a list with a maximum number. The ideal list consists of 100 items, although I’ve seen as little as 25 and as much as 300. This list is good to have available when shopping to use as a reference when deciding what you want to replace if you buy something. Because my list currently only has about 65 items on it, there is room for things such as gifts, temporary items, or just things that can’t replace something else. This list does not include furniture or items you can’t take on vacation with you, and things that are bound to have a lot of can be grouped (such as underwear and socks). These are some things your list might consist of:
1. Phone / Charger
2. Camera / Charger
