Why Folks Might Want to UnStuff
• Consumerism/materialism and ethical and environmental concerns
• Spending too much money or going into debt
• Realization that owning a lot of material goods doesn’t equal happiness
• Fed up with the ridiculous dance of buying presents for people that they may or may not like or want (and vice versa)
• Minimalism—owning less and really loving what you have
• Gift-giving isn’t fun anymore—it’s become more of an obligation
• Releasing the need to people please—am I buying gifts because I don’t want to rock the boat? • Dispel the notion that the more expensive your gift, the more you love someone • Tired of feeling the societal pressure to “keep up”
• Desire to live intentionally and on-purpose • WHAT ELSE?
