fixed timeframe
I do try to make my NYRs SMART, and it seems to help. Things like "not buying any CDs until May" were particularly helpful in unblurring the line between impulse-buying and buying things I really want, frex.
I know some people who give up things like alcohol/chocolate for January as a sort of detox after Christmas/New Year. Maybe that would work if you wanted to dissociate it from Lent?
