The author and her husband, Paul, go for a year without buying anything that's not necissary. This means no going out to eat, no movies, no new clothes, no kleenex (they just use toilet paper), no processed foods (except for bread). All that kind of stuff. It's fascinating. I don't think I could do it, it's hard enough for Judith and Paul - and they started out living fairly simply. Anyway, I completely recomond this book to anyone who feels like reading something. It's funny, smart and unusual.

I did have a picture of the book on here at some point but it seems to have disappeared. In case anyone is ever going to read this and wants to know what I'm talking about, the book is called "Not Buying It" by Judith Levine.
