Use this article to complete this section

List the five ways to reduce spending on social media:
_______ = Crafting your budget doesn’t have to be work-intensive. One of the *good* things about the internet: there are plenty of easy-to-use budgeting apps that can help you control how much you’re spending (and how much you actually should be spending) in a flash.
_______ = If you tend to buy items because #influencers are dishing about them on their pages, or to keep up with high-rolling friends, it might be time to rake your follow list for folks who encourage you to spend more than you’d rather.
_______ = The comfort of knowing you’ve written it down and won’t forget about it can grant you permission to take a beat before buying it. And giving yourself some cool-down time can clarify what you actually want – and what was purely a short-term impulse.
_______ = Find an accountability buddy and make a pact that neither of you will spend more than a certain limit – or anything at all – in response to social media ads for a set amount of time.
_______ = If you’re facing dire straits when it comes to social media spending, it might be time to say goodbye – even if not forever. Getting some space from social media could be a game-changer for your online financial life, not to mention your life life.
