ahhh thanks all - i def am NOT wasting £100 on tans and pills. A brief moment of maddess! It'll be liposuction next!!!
Im gonna have to avoid the shops at lunch for the time being to avoid temptation.
lynz - cheers chick, i'll shout if i need a hand - just wish I could fit into them!!!!
friend is def loaded - earns the same as me, but her parents moved aboard and are letting her have their house over here. Alright for some isnt it?! So she only pays for her travel to work, no credit cards/loans etc.
She cant get her head round the fact that i never have any spare cash as she has never had any debt at all. (when i told her about my £5k loan she nearly passed out! Her chin hit the floor! (which made me feel awful! I darent tell her about the rest of my debt!!!!!)0 -

No, don't do it!! Just think £100 is loads of money!!
I go for a walk on my lunchbreak (away from the shops!!) for that precise reason!
Don't let it make you feel awful hun. She's not a better person that you just because she doesn't have debt and you do. And think, you WILL be debt free one day.

That's a good idea. Go for a walk at lunchtime so you don't buy anything and you get fitter. Then you don't need the pills. Also, if it gets hotter you can get a nice healthy glow!
Good luck with ebaying. I finally put a couple of big items on last night and i've got some bids!January budget

Theres loads of things you can do for a mooch round there, St Katherines docks not far for a nice walk. :beer::beer: Well aint funny how its the little things in life that mean the most? Not where you live, the car you drive or the price tag on your clothes.

Well done for resisting!
You can get the same affects as spending that £100 by the walking briskly every lunchtime and if you really want some colour, then the Johnson Fake Tan is @ £3 a bottle and on BOGOF somewhere (think it might be Boots?)
Or if you're going to catch the sun whilst out walking, then get some sunscreen - also on BOGOF in Boots!
Back on the DFW Wagon:
CC - £3,300 on 0% til 04/2020

Do my trick- leave the purse at work or at home!! I certainly never have cash because I want to see all the purchases on my creditcard statement(cashback paid off monthly) to encourage me to spend as little as possible. Last month was £58 and £40 of that was a new rug for the horse.
St Katherines Dock is gorgeous. If you don't jog around it sit with ya packed lunch and plan how one day you will buy your yacht....Get your real tan a little at a time! Oh and catch some nice rich chap to spend his money on you!!!!!!!!!
Get out of those boring shops.
Good Luck!!"You can if you think you can."
