    Am off to Meadowhall with my mum tomorrow on a day off from work, think we may end up in a lot of clothes shops (please send me no spend vibes!) I am looking for an outfit for my brother's wedding in April, but my mum is paying for it so that doesn't count!

    Evening everyone :D

    I went into town after work to return/exchange the faulty top someone bought be. I had a lovely look round Next and got £10 on a refund card as the top was in the sale. I thought i had better get a refund card so i can think about what i need rather than just getting something on impulse :D Thats progress :rotfl:

    21 days in and havent bought anything! yet....:p

    My husband is worried about me, not only did I not make it to the charity shop on Monday (did chores instead!); we actually went to a large shopping centre today to get our daughter a new pair of school shoes and not only did I not spend anything I didn't drag him in every ladies shop from here to kingdom come!!!

    Actually, am I myself anymore??? :o)

    Wow :D to all of you & your amazing resistance, I am so impressed :A

    Souk08 - if you let me know how much you have earned from your ebay sales I will edit the front page & your allowance ;)

    I have £20 to do my grocery shop for the week ahead & also have some stuff to take in to the charity shop so will have a quick browse while in there but dont really have anything in mind ... which is always dangerous ...
