To try and control impulse shopping, I immediately grab an item I think I want.
I will continue shopping for things I actually want/need, until I look at or feel for the thing I originally grabbed. I will lose sense of interest of grabbing it and put it back.
It takes practice and time. Especially works if you know, are low on money anyways. The idea of this is, to get you thinking about what it is about that thing that made you want it and whether it would have any use or make you happy having it.
If it doesn't after the time you've been having it around, be it holding it or in the cart, then it wasn't meant to be. It was simply an impulse.
Realize and understand that you are one person. You can handle only so much on your own.
This will all take a great collaborative effort on the shoulders of the many. So, you focus on you, until everyone is collectively together enough to do the right things necessary.
It's easily disprovable, but even in the face of countless arguments against it, people still willingly throw themselves into it by the millions. They're too fearful of the unknown, they're fearful of belonging somewhere when we die and religion is the prime example of how easily controllable people are when they're fearful.
The bigger picture being is, look at how much corruption is dominating us. We've been played, we're continually being played and it seemingly looks like we're always going to be played. The more time we take up to social media, to complain about something we absolutely disagree about with how things are ran and in hopes they 'read what they say'. Well, that's giving them more leverage because we're screaming into the void and only getting just virtual pats on the back.
And it's like, we KNOW what is wrong, we KNOW who is the problem and we KNOW exactly how everyone feels. But, we allow ourselves to be distracted by what? A Super Bowl half time performance? It's like we're all too busy looking for things to cope with than brainstorming how we're going to get ourselves out of this mess.
The more we choose to cope, the more we're allowing them to get even more of a stranglehold on us.
Turn them into like tablets or webcams. If you think to yourself "hey, this would be nice if I had a screen or a device here in this room for me to use..." then there you go.
Samsung has been very reliable for me. But I would get a better Galaxy model. Something above A15, A16 .etc because those phones are just underwhelming.
They already are. It's called - sales.
The problem are people going out in droves, willingly spending $70 or more on special editions. They've caved to FOMO and it is a them problem.
We're still in the best age of gaming where there are sales in all directions.
