## What is Bought Nothing New?

Buying new is easy. Bought Nothing New helps you pause, consider what you already have and choose another route when it makes sense.

Start a 7, 30, 90 or 365-day challenge. Whenever you need something, record it before purchasing and decide how you will resolve it:

• Use something you already own
• Buy second-hand
• Borrow
• Repair
• Rent
• Swap
• Mark it as an essential exception
• Honestly record that you bought new

See your current and longest streaks, discover which alternatives work best and track the amount of new-product spending you avoided.
