Not bad you might think, but i have noticed a pattern to my spending..... i have 4 or 5 no/low-spend days, then i have a low willpower day and tend to spend more than i really need - does anybody else do this or is it just meExperience is the toughest teacher because she gives the test first then the lesson

I can't say that I do that but now you have identified that pattern, it is up to you to change it! It might be hard but you can do it if you put your mind to it as you do non/low days anyway so the determination is there!Leason learnt :beer:0 -
it sounds so easy when you put it like that moozie, and most days the determination is there, its just those weak moments......i think i need therapy!!:rotfl:Experience is the toughest teacher because she gives the test first then the lesson
