Hello from Isabella — Your New Spending Sidekick
Hi, I’m glad you’re here!
I started Simple Spender with one mission: to help people spend smarter without feeling like they’re giving up the things they love.
I’ve always been someone who loves beautiful things—cozy spaces, clever finds, thoughtful gifts—but not at the cost of my peace of mind (or my bank account). The moment that really sparked this journey? A rug. Yes, a rug.
Stylish, soft, totally Pinterest-worthy—and way out of my budget. So, I found a near-identical one for half the price. Same vibe, zero guilt. And I thought… why isn’t it easier for people to find things that are both lovely and reasonably priced?
That’s how Simple Spender was born.
Our mission
A good buy should feel like a win—not a regret. At Simple Spender, we believe mindful spending is the key to living well without overdoing it.
Simple Spender helps you skip the guilt and say yes to what’s truly worth it.
What I Live By When I Spend
I’ll be honest: I love a great deal. But I love a smart deal even more.
To me, the best purchases solve a problem, spark a little joy, and actually last. That’s why I always ask myself (and my team) before we recommend anything:
- Would I buy this again?
- Is it genuinely worth the price?
- Will it make someone’s day-to-day better?
- Is there a simpler, smarter alternative?
We don’t chase trends here. We chase value. And I promise, when you find something that’s both beautiful and budget-wise—it feels like a win. Because it is.
