Good for you :A , same here or what's the point. I do think the work clothes is a personal decision though as I couldnt do this if I needed to be buying suits & the like, selling unused clothes to increase the budget makes sense as well.

Hello all
I had decided not to spend anything:eek: on clothes this year. Please, please may I join late then I will feel rich lol. I haven't spent anything on clothes since before Xmas.
Doing the grocery challenge I've found that accountability is a very powerful incentive. I've put it in my sig Lula-Hula and I promise to be good for me (but probably not for DGS + twin DGDs:o )

Welcome S_Wales_Saver
I'm sure you will be very good, there are only a couple of troublesome ones here : you know very well who I'm talking about
Barneysmom - oh please dont be cold :eek: I couldnt bear that so off you go to the charity shop & get yourself a warm & cosy bargain or how about primark ?
I'm still good & have kept far away from ebay today; if only i could keep that far from the biccie jar too :rolleyes:

I need a new one too, mines so thin, i'll freeze in the snow if it snows again
Primark (like Lula said) i looked last week, yes i went clothes shoppingand didnt see no nice coats. Then again primarks layout baffles my mind, i can never find anything ever!.
So yeh, please dont freeze :A how about buying a scarf instead, that comes under accesories so is exempt from the challenge :T0 -
Not posted anything in a while. Mainly cos surprisingly I haven't bought any clothes! I did buy a lovely pair of shoes whih in the sale with VAT deducted were £3.91 and a little bag for £2.47 for my graduation ball. Still it is not included in the challenge. And as my old old ball gown fitted there was no need to buy a new one:j Baby boy arrived 22nd August 2012 :j
