	<div><h1>Getting Rid of Just-in-Case Items: 20 Dollars, 20 Minutes</h1>
<div>By <span><span><a href="https://www.theminimalists.com/about/">Joshua Fields Millburn &amp; Ryan Nicodemus</a></span></span> · <span>Follow: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/theminimalists">Facebook</a>, <a href="https://twitter.com/theminimalists">Twitter</a>, <a href="https://instagram.com/theminimalists">Instagram</a></span></div><img src="https://www.theminimalists.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/vitaly-taranov-OCrPJce6GPk-unsplash-2-500x333.jpg"/><div><p>We often hold on to things just in case we need them: We don’t <a href="https://www.theminimalists.com/sentimental/">let go</a> because we might need something in some far-off, nonexistent, hypothetical future. We pack too much stuff in the remotest chance we might need something for trips and vacations.</p>
<p>We needn’t hold on to these things <em>just in case</em>: We rarely use our just-in-case items—they sit there, take up space, get in the way, weigh us down. Most of the time they aren’t items we need at all.</p>
<p>Instead, if we remove the just-in-case items from our lives, we get them out of the way and free up the space they consume.</p>
<p>Over the last few years, the two of us <a href="https://www.theminimalists.com/let-it-go/">let go</a> of the vast majority of our just-in-case possessions. And during our last book tour, we made sure we didn’t pack anything <em>just in case</em>.</p>
<p>Then we tested our hypothesis: the 20/20 Rule.</p>
<p>Anything we get rid of that we truly need, we can replace for less than $20 in less than 20 minutes from our current location. Thus far, this hypothesis has become a theory that has held true 100% of the time. Although we’ve rarely had to replace a just-in-case item (fewer than five times for the two of us combined), we’ve never had to pay more than $20 or go more than 20 minutes out of our way to replace the item. This theory likely works 99% of the time for 99% of all items and 99% of all people—including you.</p>
<p>More important, we haven’t missed the hundreds of just-in-case items we’ve gotten rid of, and we didn’t need to replace most of them.</p>
<p>Getting rid of these items clears our minds, frees up our space, and takes the weight off our shoulders.</p>
<p>What are you holding on to <em>just in case</em>?</p>

<p>We often hold on to things just in case we need them: We don’t <a href="https://www.theminimalists.com/sentimental/">let go </a>because we might need something in some far-off, nonexistent, hypothetical future. We pack too much stuff in the remotest chance we might need something for trips and vacations. </p>

<p>We needn’t hold on to these things <em>just in case </em>: We rarely use our just-in-case items—they sit there, take up space, get in the way, weigh us down. Most of the time they aren’t items we need at all. </p>

<p>Instead, if we remove the just-in-case items from our lives, we get them out of the way and free up the space they consume. </p>

<p>Over the last few years, the two of us <a href="https://www.theminimalists.com/let-it-go/">let go </a>of the vast majority of our just-in-case possessions. And during our last book tour, we made sure we didn’t pack anything <em>just in case </em>. </p>

<p>Then we tested our hypothesis: the 20/20 Rule. </p>

<p>Anything we get rid of that we truly need, we can replace for less than $20 in less than 20 minutes from our current location. Thus far, this hypothesis has become a theory that has held true 100% of the time. Although we’ve rarely had to replace a just-in-case item (fewer than five times for the two of us combined), we’ve never had to pay more than $20 or go more than 20 minutes out of our way to replace the item. This theory likely works 99% of the time for 99% of all items and 99% of all people—including you. </p>

<p>More important, we haven’t missed the hundreds of just-in-case items we’ve gotten rid of, and we didn’t need to replace most of them. </p>

<p>Getting rid of these items clears our minds, frees up our space, and takes the weight off our shoulders. </p>
