Oh totally, I started tracking my craft supplies the same way and it really makes you think twice before buying more.

That part where you said 'idk how that works' is so real. I mean, I started writing down my comic book buys and it did the same thing. Maybe it's just me but seeing it all in one place makes you face what you already have. It stops that 'out of sight, out of mind' thing where you forget past buys. So without even trying, you just buy less because the list is right there. It's like a quiet reminder that you don't need more, and it works way better than I expected.

I tracked my video game purchases for three months last fall, and it proved my old belief wrong about lists being a waste of time. Seeing every game I bought laid out made me realize how often I was buying things I didn't really need. Now I swear by this method, have you tried it with anything else?
