I think it's a very sensible ideal to try and reduce unnecessary spending to a minimum. We are also trying to eat down our freezer, not just to save money but also to make more space for freezing more veg and fruit from our garden in the coming year.
I have been trying to reduce spending on clothes over the last few years, not by buying cheaper clothes necessarily, rather by buying stuff that will last a long time, can be repaired etc. My last waterproof coat was replaced with a wax jacket to allow me to reproof, repair it in the future rather than having to buy a new waterproof jacket more often.
It should allow me in the future to spend less.
My daughters bike is good quality but bought second hand with a view to being used by both her and her little brother then either given ti a friend or sold on. I'm quite able to service the bikes, change cables, keep it oiled etc so they should last in good nick.
Our feelings in our house looking towards the future is to buy when we really need something, and when we are going to buy something buy the best, most long lasting and repairable we can to avoid having to buy twice or more and if it is something that will be outgrown etc should have a resale value.
I'm sure many would call it an old fashioned view point but it makes sense.
