Can you define it then? Are Kitchen appliances unnecessary spending? What about designer clothes? VR Headsets? Video Game Consoles?

Sure. You can start by making unnecessary consumption mean “net pollutant” products where the cost of producing them and the waste they create exceed the value that customers pay for or gain from the product, so easy suspects are the types of inventory which are always left over and unsold even during huge sales and promo periods.
