    OK, am not including my gym spends in this, since I need to get trainers and a sports bra *imagines trying to find a tight hammock for each boob*

    Hiya, Can I be added to this challenge? I want to include underwear, but not accessories. I'm pretty sure I should be ok; I think last year I spent only around £30. However I have a wedding to go to in the summer, so that will increase the spending a bit. I have spent £4.84 already, and may be spending a little more in the next few days, but this is pretty unusual, I promise!
  • I have been doing this for years lol, just got out of the bath having removed my track suit bought in 1997 (when pregnant with DD), and put on nightdress bought in 1997 (again when pregnant with DD). The dressing gown is new though but a gift, and I had a row over Christmas off my sister, for wearing the first pair of boots I ever bought myself, was 15 at the time and am now 40!!
    Never been one for spending on clothes as you can tell :rotfl::rotfl:

  • Hi all. I withdrew my £100 budget today so that the amount is more real to me. I can see two problems with this:

    1. I probably won't have the money with me if it's not a planned shopping trip.
    2. It doesn't look very much!

    Still determined though!

    I have a bra to declare - I have 2 Asda bras that I wear all the time in rotation (obviously have other, less favoured ones as well) and one is showing its age now. I went in Asda today and they had the same one in a beautiful deep purple so I'd like to declare £4 for that please.
