SUFE
Another neat technique from a podcast: "10 out 1 in", the speaker describing a program instituted with his son.
Once a month, I think he said, he and his son
collect ten toys that are no longer played with, take them in a sack to a
Goodwill or similar place, after which the son is allowed to buy (at
father's expense?) any toy anywhere - from Goodwill or Toys'R'Us.
Son loves it - a new toy every month, brought on the backs of some of the crap received last Christmas.
Dad loves it, as does mum I guess - a lot less clutter around the house.
We could each do that in our living space; for each
new appliance brought in, discard the two least used. Do you really
need an electric apple corer? Who buys electric apples nowadays?
We could do it with salts and spices too, especially getting rid of two salts and replacing them with a new spice.
