I've been experimenting with minimalism by tracking every non-consumable purchase (clothing, electronics, etc.) for a few years. There's no clear patterns in the spending habits that have emerged yet, but the practice itself has been surprisingly effective at curbing unnecessary/impulse buys. I finally got around to visualizing the data this week and wanted to share with you guys.

This is awesome. I have been trying to track similar things mainly to identify brands of cloths that actually last long enough to be worth it.
How do you keep the discipline to do this?
I also assume it is very nice to have such list if something gets broken/torn/lost and you need to buy a replacement right aways.
How much testing did it took Arive to such stable set?
