Almost everyone has something they’re obsessed with. Some are obsessed with cars, some with watches, others with perfumes, the list is endless. When it comes to a certain obsession that we can afford, we sometimes can’t help but buy over and over. But this time we are not talking about obsessions of the high price tags, we are here to talk about those little things you’d never thought can strip your wallet dry.
Books & Stationary
Yup, you heard that right. Some people like to read, others like to hoard books, no matter how many unread ones they have lying out there on their shelves. But did you know some people can be obsessed with stationary, especially collecting nice notebooks and pens?
Socks
This is an obsession that goes beyond the mystery of the missing sock, it is about growing a collection of different and unique pairs. For people who like to collect socks, their drawers will be filled with an assortment of every trendy sock you can imagine. The trick is you think it’s just one more pair until you begin to do the math and realize the fortune you spent on socks.
Coffee
What can be a better pleasure than the smell of coffee first thing in the morning? But if you are one of the people who buy expensive coffee every day on the go, you don’t want to even estimate how much you’ve spent on this item alone in a year.
Unused subscription
You want to make sure you have access to every show or every song so you end up subscribing to all the platforms you know and probably use just one. Not just that, how about a gym subscription that you pay once a year but go maximum one month a year? At that point, you should really filter your subscriptions and minimize them to only the ones you use.
In short, it is nice to spoil yourself and spend on the things you like. But if you take a moment to really analyze where your money goes and how much you spend, you might find several items that you will totally eliminate from your expenses.
