Conscious Shopping

This template helps you make more thoughtful purchasing decisions that are aligned with your values. Before you fall for a new item, take the time to objectively assess your desire through a structured methodology.

How it works:

Each potential purchase is analyzed according to several key criteria:

• Need vs Desire - Measure the actual necessity of the item on a scale of 1 (pure pleasure) to 5 (absolute necessity)
• Estimated Joy - Evaluate the positive emotional impact expected from this purchase
• Durability – Consider the quality and longevity of the item
• Frequency of Use - Determine how often you will actually use this item
• Alternative - Do you already own something that performs a similar function?

A Final Score and Verdict are automatically calculated to guide you in your decision. Track the progress of your potential purchases (In Consideration, Purchased, Abandoned, Pending) and reduce impulse purchases while maximizing the satisfaction of your purchases.

Ideal for adopting a more conscious consumption, reducing waste and making choices that really suit you
