It's really hard Dave. I've been without any purchases since early August, I believe. I rarely went to vendor sites, especially at the start. After I had some time in, it was easier: I'd say something like "Do I really want to break this streak for X"?

Also, being busy has helped me avoid those trigger threads (like soap of the day, for me).

Wishing you lots of luck and lots of perseverance!

Since my wife and I go on quite a few short (3-7 day) vacation trips, I've thought about getting a travel scuttle, but I just used a small plastic salad bowl. However, today a PAA scuttle appeared on eBay, and I got it for half the retail price, so now I'm set for the road.

Secretary Ramsey put his foot into it yesterday . . . in the course of his remarks he said that California “needs water and better society.”  “So does h-ll,” yelled someone in the crowd.
