Is everyone going shopping today then?
According to the press everyone is battering the high streets and online stores.
I figured I don't actually NEED anything new right now. Trying to stay from temptation
What are your plans for today? :A

Yes, spending like there's no tomorrow. Have heard about VAT going up 1st Jan, that doesn't sound good for us!
Glitter: Oh dear. Get Well soon !
I've just become Debt Free a couple of days ago, so spending my time today looking into the concept of saving! Very excited! It seems Cash ISAs may be a good place to start.
I'll be staying in relaxing with good books and DVDs. Bliss.Achievements:

No sales for us, we have been out for a walk in the snow with the dog and helped some people who's car was stuck in the snow/slush.....now staying home for the rest of the day playing games watching dvd's etc :j
I've actually had enough of shopping for now 0 -
Ive been to poole got there at 9.30 car park also empty!
went to Lush spent £40 and got gifts worth £84 free
and boots and bought a few bits for next christmas! Must be mad!0 -
I've been the sales-got up early for the Next sale-50% of which items purchased will go back on monday. I've never done the next sale before, but for those who have been the sales do they hand out a 'disclosure' about health and safety?! I watched a pregnant women literally flying without wings! Very scary. Anyhow, back to thread (sorry guys, had to get that off my chest).
Went the New Look sale, Primark and Boots and picked up some nice bargains.
Online would be safer for those who don't want to get trampled on.
The disappointing sale has to be....Superdrug. Loads of stuff I'm convinced I also saw last year on the sales. Maybe I'm imagining it.
Carpark was very icy! Got shopping done by lunchtime.___________________________________________

I went and got what I would normally have got. I did need new undies so they were at the top of my list, and Body Shop reducing stuff to under half meant I could do an MSE stock-up on the products I adore but can't always get as they're VERY expensive.** Total debt: £6950.82 ± May NSDs 1/10 **** Fat Bum Shrinking: -7/56lbs **
**SPC 2012 #1498 -£152 and 1499 ***
I do it all because I'm scared.
