What’s your biggest money vice?' poll discussion

I spend far too much money on handbags - last year over £700, which shocked me as I realised what better things I could spend my money on.

My new years resolution was not to buy any more bags - which I failed, but I also sold some on eBay so my net spending on bags this year is -£5!

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.

i happily drink 4 or 5 pints a night throughout the week, and an additional half bottle of wine on fridays, saturdays, and sometimes mondays (my day off's tuesdays).

but then i used to drink twice that, so i should give myself a pat on the back. at least for now anyway !

My vice is books, anything else I can say " I don't need it, I won't buy it" but when it's books I start thinking "well £7.99 isn't bad" or "3 for 2! excellent!" even though I don't have enough room for my books as it is! I've already bought one book shelf this year and might have to buy another one! They're just sooo nice to have... I like all different types as well, I've got a load of cook books, craft books (mainly crochet for inspiration and making presents), loads of archaeology books for my university course and rather a lot of fiction...
:money: sorry, it looked cool, had to add it!

^^ get on to amazon and start doing some book reviews, evenually they will ask you to sign up to "the vine" and you can get free books in return for reviews.

I've been part of Amazon Vine since December 2007, and had more than just books!!
