O. and P.

I am very good at budgeting, and having to scrape by on JSA as I am, with 1/3 of it being taken away, the chance to overspend just isn't there as I have no credit cards/loans.

Hmmm, well when I do overspend, I'd actually say it's A. I just have been going through my emails, trying to delete some to clear a bit of space and found an online receipt: I've spent over £109 on a ticket to see Elton John later this year. Mind you, I did buy that when I was working, and had no idea I'd lose my job (was sacked for no reason, not made redundant).

Actually I forgot I do this as well. This year I promised myself I wouldn't go to any gigs/shows, etc. But I've ended up buying tickets for 3 shows this year. In my defence they are for the family - Miley Cyrus and HSM2 on Stage for my DD, and a family ticket for the local panto :rotfl:. That little lot has cost around £250!!!:eek: But I've made plenty on surveys this year to cover some of it :T

We do spend quite a bit of good food, both ingredients and eating out, but it's important to us - we always have one meal out a week at a nice restaurant.

Holidays are our second splurge... We don't have any debts and always live within our means, it's our golden rule.

Alcohol all the way for me, I work nights Monday to Friday and weekends I get !!!!ed up at least once, sometimes Saturday and Sunday, I often then spend next to nothing through the week.

For me it is generally drinking when out and participating in sport (I do SCUBA diving). Don't get drunk just end up in overpriced bars drinking stupidly expensive drinks!!!

I spend all my money on my hair extensions, make up , fake tan and false nails.

You might want to budget a bit for a liver transplant later in life... :rolleyes:
