Great tip cookiedough, will have to dig out my box of beads :j

I bought a coat for 14.99
Does that count?

Too wet to take my arthritic-y knees out in the cold today, so I went to play in the wardrobe (not quite literally;)) & also sorted out my chest of drawers.
To summarize: still no spend on clothes, I found a bag of tights that I'd forgotten about
, I've recycled some dead t-shirts, underwear & 2 dreary nighties :rolleyes: and ALL my socks are now in pairs 
That glow on the westerly horizon is my halo :rotfl::rotfl:
luxor, if you have any free time, I have a wardrobe (or two:o:o) that could do with sorting out :rotfl::rotfl:
Well done :j

Hey Buffy,
coats dont count if they are of the 'keeping you warm as outerwear' variety
... however, if it's not for a practical purpose then it does count 
Please dont hate me

Well I only have the 10 quid George coat and it is falling apart(lining) - I realised this this morning when I looked in the mirror and it was all creased and minus buttons etc so when I saw this one in the sale for 14.99 I just thought sod it.
but I think I shall count it. (unless things get desperate!!)
