Be a guest online shopper

While looking at products to buy, surf on the shopping sites without logging in or use the "incognito mode." This way, the website will not track your cache to fill your window with related product advertisements.

Turn off app notifications

The best way to avoid seeing offer based ads is to change the app settings on your phone for all your shopping and food-related apps to prevent yourself from making unnecessary purchases.

Use two email accounts

Create an email account that you can exclusively give only to brand retailers. This way your advertisements are out of sight, and you will not get distracted by them.

Transfer money to a savings account at the start of the month

Transfer a set percentage of your salary to a savings account and do not carry its ATM card with you. When you cannot access your card, you will plan your spending better, sticking to the essentials. This account can also act as your emergency fund account.

Make realistic purchases

Only purchase things you need and will you in use in the future. Purchasing an expensive phone with complicated specifications when you will use it only to make phone calls and check emails is impractical.
