Clear the decks for the big spender - I got three items off the sale rail at my local chazza the other day, a pound each. Two beautiful skirts and a 'business caz' shirt, all very nice condition and reasonable quality.
Can't remember the last time I bought anything - oh, I think it was my work shoes, about £18 from Matalan maybe a year ago.0 -

There was a beautiful denim jacket with fake fur lining in another chazza as well for £3. I wanted it, ummed and ahhed, debated and didn't get it. Now I regret it. That's the trouble with chazzas - you see bargains for stuff you weren't planning on, and whether you get them or not you wind up second guessing yourself.
I still remember a beautiful red suede 3/4 length coat, practically brand new condition, I saw in a chazza for £15 and didn't get a couple of years ago. I'm going to be regretting that on my deathbed!0 -

Me too:A
Number 62 for you then... Grrrrr :mad: to leaving gorgeous sounding red suede coat behind. Mind you, being scared to leave stuff behind in shops is one of the reasons I have debt ...:rolleyes:
off to sign you up right away :j0 -
My mum now says, 'Oh, that b***** coat!' when I bring it up, so you gather how often I mention it...0

Bit miffed about one of my chazza skirts - the even lovelier one, supposed to be a 10, just hangs off me (or rather falls down to about where indecent teen hippity-hoppity gangbangers wear their jeans). I'm definitely not an 8 plus I've got a pot belly, so I can only suppose George have a 'generous' cut. It is a gorgeous skirt, breaks my blimmin heart. Oh well.0

I'd love to b a 8 or 10, 12 even, maybe a 14, im a 16/18, maybe a 14 depends what shop it is. I was also thinking that it depends on the type of lifestyle and job a person has wether they spend lots on clothes or little. My social life is that of a peanut :rolleyes: . Other people might have meetings and parties and lots of stuff to be busy with
