I think they're idiots but that's allowed. They can do without if they want to. This same story has already been peddled by the LA Times (I think).

I disagree. These guys have a good idea!

The U.S. has morphed into such a consumer-driven culture where there's a lot of pressure to keep up with the Joneses, even if it means taking on debt.

It's amazing how much stuff we buy that we don't really need.

Of course, though, if you want to do this, great. If you don't, you have that choice too...and if you think that these ten folks are idiots, you are definitely allowed your own beliefs.

Yeah, and If I remember correctly, this story has run for the last 2 years as well.. I seem to remember seeing a "We have not shopped all year" story last year for sure. Seems like every year someone else tries it.
