Lula-Hula

Well done for confessing sparklygemster & both you & mummy2my2girls will be pleased to know that underwear is definitely not included .

dobs - I never feel bad about spending on DD, kids grow & I always stock up on stuff for her when it's bargainous - it makes sense .

going to update your amount left now sparklygemster :eek: it's on the first page so no cheating .

bye for now

I'm trying to keep my spending on undies down to under £100 as well, which is a lot less than I normally spend...

I love M&S undies, don't buy them from anywhere else, and never wear anything that isn't a matching set. It's like KOCD (Knicker OCD) with me.

If I manage to keep it under £100 I will have done really well :rotfl:

DS2' £1 (with a code) Vertbaudet tops arrived today (Thanks for the info, panda) so a whole £1 spend here!

I'm just not going into any shops that sell clothes for now. Might have a look again at the end of the sales then leave it for a month or so.

Mind you could do with a new pair of jeans like......:eek: :mad:

HELLO EVERYONE..
Thankyou lula hula for adding me to this challenge .I think im going to find this very intresting as i really dont have a clue how much i usually spend on clothes a year , due to me being a sales spender !! so i live in Denial most times thinking ive saved money rather than spent it!!!}
Im doing super good at the moment as i have refrained from looking on clothing websites and i have store vouchers still in my purse and not spent them yet !!:j
So for january im rather proud of myself so far ..lol
Anyhow i hope you dont mind but im going to update my signature to with how much i spend on my daughter aswell, as she is my main downfall for clothes spending and i would really like to see how much more i spend on her than myself !! like all us mothers do ]..she is still growing so deserves a higher challenge price than myself !! my excuse ], so i can prove to my friends that i dont spend too much on her as they all think .

Airwolf1

So far I've spent nothing. I went to buy some handkerchiefs, but the shop didn't have any. I didn't realise underwear was excluded as well!

dobs

Airwolf1 you were up late!!

Hubby went and bought me 6 more prs of slippers at Asda cos they were about £1.50 a pr!Grr he bought me 6 prs at xmas, i might give a couple of prs to nan and then its not so much out of my £100!Will adjust my signature when i have worked it out - not that it was me spending it so maybe i should add it onto hubbys lol!

mummy2mygirls

oh glad the underware isnt included otherwise im sure it would all be blown - and not with nice underware!!! maternity bras are horrible!!Lol

dobs has your hubby got a thing for slippers???:D

Still havent spent anything - and dont intend to till later in the yr........oh i hope i can keep to it..

dobs, unless you're an octopus that's an overdose of slippers!!!

Lula, I have a query... If I buy myself the ingredients needed for knitting myself a cardigan or jumper, does that count as part of my £100 spend??? I love cardigans and jumpers, but refuse to pay over £30 for a chunky bum-coverer!!

(chunky being the knitted product, not my bum!!)
