Will 2024 Be a “No-Buy Year”?

Here’s a potential trend that could cause retailers to break into a sweat: as 2023 draws to a close, some social media influencers are pledging to do away with impulsive spending habits in 2024 as part of a “no-buy year,” Business Insider reports.

As an example, the news service pointed to the widely followed sentiments posted in November by a TikToker who goes by @nobuy2024, who said she would be starting her “no-buy year” in December, as she had “a borderline shopping addiction” and wanted to document her journey to achieving financial stability. She was also hoping to connect with others who were “trying not to be influenced by consumerism in the year of 2024,” she said.

These TikTokers could be reflecting a broader trend, as Americans in general are keeping a closer eye on their money and financial habits, Business Insider notes.

Such a movement, if it becomes more widespread thanks to such factors as the resumption of student loan payments and rising credit card debt, would clearly have an impact on the retail industry. Stay tuned as the New Year progresses – Shop! will keep any eye on this budding movement.

  • I had a great time with that, too. Despite the high quality of the visuals and the prose, you find yourself eagerly anticipating what happens next. If you decide to defend this walk, it will basically be the same every time.

  • I loved you even more than you'll say here. The picture is nice and your writing is stylish, but you read it quickly. I think you should give it another chance soon. I'll likely do that again and again if you keep this walk safe.

  • You could never find the words to describe how much I loved you. No matter how beautiful the picture is or how polished your writing is, you read it quickly. To be honest, I think you should give it another chance soon. I will probably try to go on this hike again and again if you make sure it is safe.
