  • Thanks Lula-Hula!!!!!

    Well it was paday yesterday and normally i would have been down in town buying clothes (i really am a nightmare) but thanks to working late and staying away in my lunch break i didnt go!!! must keep strength up!!

    Its my birthday coming up and been speaking to my husband about what to get me, theres nothing i really want but and i just thought clothes?? does this count?

    I have actually had a thought bout what i desperately need and due to the holes in my jogging bottoms bum i think they are a must but good news, neighbour works at peacocks and gave me a 40% dicount voucher as was telling her about this thread and my aim NOT TO SPEND!!
  • Whoo I had a clothes purchase today!

    A beautiful baby blue top from Next, cost 20p at a car boot sale! Last of the big spenders. :rotfl:

  • Right, I am officially banning myself from buying anymore cardigans...

    Can I ask where you buy all your cardigans? I can never seem to find any nice ones :(

    I think this challenge would be very hard for someone like me, as it's really hard for me not to buy clothes that I find really stylish and most of them are costly. But this one is a real challenge.

    I've seen some really nice cardigans at House of Fraser, maybe you can check them out.

    Lula - can i deduct another £6.50, pair of jeans (size 14, dontcha know!! woop woop!!) and a nice slouchy trendy sweater from charity shop this week...

    Balance £20.50 left to spend...

    It's a feeble excuse but i have needed to buy clothes since i have lost weight this year... i may need to readjust my allowance! or get earning on Ebay....! time to sell some fat clothes i think!
    I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....

    My good old black crocs busted and so I finally had to get a replacement at £4.99 in the Millets sale
