@Camy: YES! Making your own money really does change how you see it and how you spend it...I end up thinking stuff like "Do I really want that burger? Because it cost almost an hour of my life to get it." (yaaaay minimum wage -_-)
I think we all have our own money traps (mine was definitely buying stuff for people's birthday and re-buying stuff that I had lost in my house xD)...so unspending kinda works to reset spending and help us see where the traps are. Pretty awesome!

Ugh minimum wage.
We sure do, I actually bought three video games I lost, but one was really lost while the other two was with my dad. I think it's because we moved and we all just dumped things in something in the end XD

I accept your challenge, "high prince", but I am no general.

Dumping things in random boxes = how I handle most of my stuff 99% of the time! LOLOL

Re: Unspend
I went back and severely edited this one-pager to be as simple as the philosophy it teaches! (Pretty much started over with a new draft, keeping only the first few bits of the old page and going from there.) Plus, as always, I spiffed things up with Google Fonts, but I also designed the bottom of the page to look MUCH nicer than it did...check it out!
Re: Unspend
I hadn't seen this website before! :D It's neat! Well done, Robin!
Unfortunately, like Destinie, I also have the opposite problem, haha! :'D Even if there's something I need and definitely can't do without, I'll over-think the cost and never, ever buy it, even if I need it... Or wait for the "perfect bargain" for months and months... I'm getting better at this though! There's always a happy medium. :)

Re: Unspend
@Chibi: Thank you!! Glad you like the site :D I'm just now getting to the stage where I'm almost over-analyzing a purchase (LOL), but some days I still struggle with "BUY ALL THE CUTE THINGS" or "BUY ALL THE ORGANIZY THINGS" xD
