How do I stop doomscrolling Amazon deals?

Stop doomscrolling Amazon deals by adding friction, cutting triggers, and using a waiting rule.

Do this first:

• Delete the Amazon app
• Turn off Amazon notifications
• Disable 1-Click buying
• Log out after each session

Reduce deal temptations:

• Unsubscribe from deal emails and channels
• Leave deal subreddits or mute them
• Use a blocker like Freedom, Cold Turkey, or Opal during your usual scroll times

Use the 72-hour rule:
Put tempting items on a “Cooling Off” wishlist and wait 72 hours before checking it again. The urge usually drops fast.

Replace the habit:
When you want to browse out of boredom, open a non-shopping app instead: Kindle, Libby, Pocket, Instapaper, or Duolingo.

The goal is simple: make Amazon harder to open, make buying slower, and give your brain another place to go.
