    Not far into the month but I have not wanted to impulse buy once. Maybe I am too stingey to put the £1 into my sealed tine if I see a want. I am going into toown this morning with a list and hope to come home just with what is on it. :T

    Unless the bank have free money laying around......and what the heck if they do....I'll just knick it!! :confused:;)
    I don't get to come on here too often.
    Too buzy money saving!

    Hi guys, well I am doing ok so far - no coffees bought on the way to work and no money spent on lunches etc......but that is because the first four days of January, I was not at work, so cheating somewhat.

    But, today I got to work without buying a coffee, and I have sandwiches and crisps ready for lunch, so I am doing ok.......

    Well am doing well on the giving up buying toiletries and am working away at them all. I finished a free mini shower gel yesterday and contineud using up lots of old products, can't wait until i actually finish some more. My skin is feeling great for it too.

    I had to throw away some food recently on the 3rd and 4th and have reckoned that i have thrown away £4 of food. Has been quite shocking, however there have been quite a few bits that i have eaten up that i previously wouldn't have, such as the fruit that is about to go off and yoghurts that were slightly out of date.

    Everyone added to date. Anyone who still wants to join is more than welcome:D Just do a slightly shorter challenge or run past the finish date.

    I've had another good day today as I was at work. A parcel came today from the States which has eyeshadow palettes in it but I bought it when we had finished the last challenge.
