Very impressed that I've only spent £1 in the whole of January. However, I fell down at work yesterday (Yes, I am an idiot!) and think I might have damaged my fave work trousers beyong repair ao might need some new ones

Hmmm, does your £100 include work wear then ? Think very carefully

Lol, tempting as it is, I think it probably does! I got the last pair from ebay for 99p - will have to look for something similar. i'm just annoyed as they fitted perfectly!

Ok, I'm delcaring £16.50 from Monsoon yesterday (Really nice dress reduced in the sale!)

Many things bought in Primark today but my mum paid for them :j

I can't believe that I now have £83.50 :eek: for a whole 11 months.

Went shopping with my friends yesterday (for my birthday presents, that they were paying for). So on my birthday I'm getting a lovely new top, which was £10 in New Look - but still nothing off my total!

Am I too late to join?

I confess. I'm a primark addict. I go in at least once a week. I have a wardrobe full of things that still have the tags on. I really don't need any clothes right now, but what I do need is an incentive NOT to buy any! :rotfl:So far this year I haven't bought any new clothes, which I think is a record for me. If I can genuinely stay under £100 it'll be such a big boost to my debt free plans.

You are like me, except I am an ebay addict searching for expensive labels at knock down prices, which when the arrive hardly ever fit and end up in the wardrobe unworn. I am going to spend no money over the next year as I have just bought my ultimate desire, a new kitchen and now I cannot spend any money on anything else but the kitchen debt. :rotfl: :rotfl:

Hi Lula

Just to say that although I spent £19.50 on a new pair of shoes for work, was good to know that they don't have to come off my balance. Yippee !!

lol at least we potentially have lots of new things to wear (I'm thinking of learning to sew so all the stuff that doesn't fit or is entirely inappropriate can hopefully be salvaged)
Either that or try to flog it on ebay
