Everyone talks about Hoarders - but how about serial Purgers?

People that throw away new things - and then you have to rebuy them...

Do you have to deal with that?

I do....
i prefer 'minimalist'...

@NebulaBut the blanket isn't materialistic it's sentimental...hoarders aren't able to emotionally depreciate things that are no longer any good, they hang on, because they think they still have some hidden future use or value. Maybe your daughter just really likes the idea and process of shopping...?

@fun4us2b she collects a lot of different things

@Nebula Is she paying rent - that's usually a good way to force people to budget - or maybe create a budget with a savings plan....

I'm a serial purger that's mostly in control of it now. I get overwhelmed by too many things. I don't throw away new things, but I still often look for things that need to be donated or tossed out
I am a purger of mostly old things...I don't like clutter

@pripyatamusementpark Same - so talking about the opposite of a hoarder here - like it gets thrown out, then have to rebuy another the next day....I'm so friggin annoyed right now....

@fun4us2b That sounds rough 🫤

My daughters a hoarder im the purger
I had an ex like this ....hed purge stuff and upgrade, (well that's what he called it).

Took him 17 to organize his shed coz he cept 'refining' and 'upgrading' which is just self delusional words for "shopaholic" 😅

I mean....i can laugh now - but in the end, his habit was causing us debt.

And i had to cook on a camp stove for 15 years .... coz of his purging and replacing perfectly good stuff🤷‍♀
