How are the lists going?
If you need a stern word - I can help with that! (so much easier doing it to others than to yourself!)
You CAN do this.
You know what I have been doing lately - finding stuff I like and putting it in a wishlist rather than through the checkout - it feels like I have bought it/put it out there. I figure I'm i'm really really really good then I can make my wish come true!
But it is SOOOO hard not spending. I took a trip to Tesco home on Friday - went in there for 2 things - child amusement and toy storage (£11.69). I also came out with 3 new t-shirts, pair of trainers, a helicopter he was going to have a fit about if i didnt buy it, a pair of wellies, and a new little bag for nursery. Its easy not spending on me but I LOVE spending on him! ARRGGHH!
Chin up
Every time you are tempted, come here instead! Hey, Soul Sister0 -
Aww thank you hun.
That wishlist is a really good idea. That shall be my first list of the day
something to look forward to in times to come.
:T
I have to try so hard not to spend on my neices and nephews -theyre only months old. It is tough not spending on the little un's.
