  • Hi everyone,

    Been looking at Credit card statements and noticed my £9.50 spend was actually on 29 December 2008 so I still have £100 left,:j Lula Hula please could you amend my total. Ta

    So far I have found it quite easy not to spend, I have so much stuff anyway, but I have just been told about a charity shop selling great stuff at more reasonable prices than the city centre ones so will go and have a look- the £100 may not last long!!!!

    Hi everyone

    I've finally given in and bought a new pair of trousers today for work. They were a bargain at £6 from a shop that sells ends of ranges. They were from Wallis so I am well chuffed. I had got another pair of trousers and a top but I don't like them on so they are going back to the shop tomorrow. Have adjusted my balance on sig so would be grateful if you could amend the main list Lula. Many thanks everyone for the help and inspiration you all provide and to Lula for the support and running of this board.
    I got there - I'm debt free and intend to stay that way. If I haven't got the cash, it doesn't get bought. It's as simple as that.

    Still haven't spent any money on clothes. Have been staying away from the shops although did pop into op shop the other day but came out empty handed:D Have gained more weight this year:eek: but am trying to lose it as apart from not wanting it;) I don't want to have to go out and buy bigger clothes.
