It sounds paradoxical, but it’s not impossible.
To me, minimalism means stripping away the excess to get to what is essential.
It might seem like shopping at Costco could not fit into aminimalist lifestyle, but I believe it can.

Make One Big Trip Every Once in a While
Onebigshopping trip frees up time.
Minimalism isnt just about stuff: Its about removing the excess from your life in all areas.
Freeing up time spent shopping is a major win in my book.
Minimalism is all about knowing what fits comfortably into your home, your closet, and your calendar.

I appreciate not having to think so hard about what to buy while I am at Costco.
The limited selection also means my mind isnt wandering off to recipes Ive been meaning to cook.
Committing to a larger quantity of one punch in of thing also makes meal planning easier.
Seriously Consider Those Large Packages
Large packages make you question what you really love.
At Costco, I am actually less likely to make animpulse purchasebecause each one is such a commitment.
This minimalist marketing means Im not tempted to overspend.
My advice?Shop with a listand stick to itthats minimalism 101.
