From the Publisher

Praise for Tara Button and A Life Less Throwaway:

"I love the idea behind Buy Me Once."
—Ashton Kutcher, actor and activist

"A brilliant idea."
—Caitlin Moran, author and journalist

". . . promises a more contented way of living and rages amusingly against planned obsolescence, fast furniture, weaselly advertising and cunning shop design. It also offers tips on curating and caring for your possessions, as well as ad-blocking."
