I made a New Year's Resolution I would only buy 12 items this year. That's one a month.

So done good. I've only bought The Unfinished Swan at $7.50.

This restriction is less about money, and more about preventing myself from amassing clutter I don't use.

(Though technically, free items don't count - otherwise demos and indie titles would obliterate the 12 rather quickly)
