I have sent a jumper to the charity shop (to recycle) as it has died an honourable death.
It cost £10 originally, I think I wore it more in the last 2 months than I did in the previous 2 years

As well as saving me money AND saving me wasting time loitering in clothes shops AND making me realise what I do wear & don't wear (OK, I've finally recognised the 20%:80% ratio theory is true!) this challenge means I can now 'kill off' all the nearly dead bits & pieces in the wardrobe:rolleyes: .

It's a great feeling to wear something out. Unless you really love it in which case you wish you had bought two of them!

Hi, I know I haven't officially joined but I have become very shop aware. I went to M & S with my trusty vouchers (£100 worth) and all I bought was a £5 pair of sunglasses. I saw a lovely pink jacket but at £50 it seemed so expensive and even 'nice' work dresses were £30 plus.
I have decided that I will wait another month until I have had my colour analysis done and lost a bit more weight

Hi everyone, I need to confess again. I bought another T-shirt yesterday - I really did need T-shirts! I spent £5.90 on it and although its nice and I'll wear it loads that seems really expensive now!

I've also been altering stuff, so far I've turned one badly fitting dress into a well fitting top. This is really my motivation for joining this challenge - I want to learn to at least make basic alterations to clothes and ideally I'd like to be able to make my own.

Miss-spent,

doesnt matter if you think you're not official ( in my mind you are ) if you're thinking more about what you spend that's brilliant, keep posting & telling us what you are / not spending on :A

thoroughlybrokemillie - I am truly impressed with you :A there'a section at the back of the book I shall not plug any more :rolleyes: all about alterations which is what gave me the idea for turning my cardi into a waistcoat
I will adjust your allowance accordingly
