    Ok another confession, took my skirt back which cost £20 and ended up buying a dress for £30 - how stupid is that?!?

    Sounds like something I would do:rotfl: You have the strength to take the dress back too.

    I'm still doing well. No confessions to report:A I'm just on here quickly but will be back later to update the list. It's great to see it growing:T

    Hi there - over a week gone and still going strong.

    I am faced with a dilemma though - have found a forgotten gift card for £30 worth of clarins products - is this considered spending and what would happen if I had to "put to" to maximise the use?

    The expiry date is within our 100 days - advise please?

    Hello everybody,

    phew, finally, I've managed to catch up with everyone and have also had a think.

    I like some of the new ideas, esp the no biscuits and cakes unless homemade, I may have to think about that one for next time but at the moment I've discovered a shop that sells Mcvites Digestives so I'm currently addicted.

    Magni, please can you put me down for the following banned items, same as the previous challenge.

    No to:-

    Cosmetics/Perfumes
    Magazines/Books
    Cds/Dvds
    Clothes/Shoes
    Shampoo/Conditioner.

    New to the Take 3 Challenge.

    To only allow myself either one latte or one earl grey tea per week (one only - not both). I'd like to give this up entirely but I think the owner would miss my custom and I want to support the local businesses.

    I know I'm late but I haven't bought anything since the last challenge so I'll finish on the 21st July also.

    Good luck everybody!!

    Yorkielass, love the idea of putting money on gift cards, that's something I'll look into and think about doing in the future.

    Thanks

    Toodles.
