Benjamin made a list of all the things he bought in the week before Buy Nothing Day. He found out he spent a lot of money on things he really didn't need. Some of the things he didn't even want! It had just sounded good at the time. He had spent $66.89 that week and decided he could have spent twenty-seven percent less and still have gotten everything he needed. If he had spent twenty-seven percent less, what would he have spent in the week before Buy Nothing Day?
