    Hi all,

    I am being brave and returning the waistcoat, decided I just don't suit it! So that's me back to having spent £41 with £79 left. Must try and do charity shops but they are all usually tat around where I am. The only decent stuff in one near me is mostly stuff I have given to them, and I ain't buying back my own clothes, ha!

    Almost gave into a Dotty P dress which I have a similiar one but decided it wasn't very versatile i.e. will only go with one pair of boots!

    Well done everyone who hasn't spent and everyone who has lovely new clothes x
  • spent 75 p in Asda on earrings (reduced from £5). I'm counting this in as earrings and handbags are my downfall!

    Will try for £100 for all clothes for the year. That should be enough to replace anything that wears out, and I might be able to sell some bits to raise more money. I'll include shoes - my vice. But replacing my trainers - they may cost more if they wear out and I need them for jogging.

  • I've still not had time to look at/try on/decide about those 2 cardies I got the other day, but will sort that out today/tomorrow as if I don't keep them, they'll be going back this weekend. Other than that, I have not bought anything new. Well done everyone and I'm finding everyone's posts so motivating.

    I spent my first £5.00 today on a pack of thermal socks from Tesco. It was a planned purchase which makes me feel better about it!

    Have £50 left in my paypal account after selling a load of clothes last week and have decided to be extra DFW and rather than add to my cothes budget, it's going on debt :T

    How good am I??! :A

    Have a good weekend people and keep those purses firmly closed! ;)
