Well the good news is I don't like anything in the new Joules collection - well if some of the Jersey tops are in the sale in the summer I'd pick them up but nothing now at the price it is.
After finally washing all my stuff which needs 'special care' when washing it and then ironing it all I feel I have lots of opportunities for freedom days again - White stuff dress today.Initial Mortgage January 2024 - £160,000

I have my first spend of the year to declare £8 on to long sleeved t-shirts form ASDA very practical so don't feel at all guilty and two whole months into the year I still have £92 to play with.0

Hi All,
No spends at all this month - yay!
Also have been wearing more of my favourite clothes - instead of saving them for best, nothing very exciting, but still nice to be looking in the wardrobe for something different to wear instead of going through the same few items week after week.Debt Free since Nov 11 (ish) (except the £118000 mortgage) as at Jan 2013 but still hanging around DFW as I need to Stay On Track.

Hello everybody - making use of the free interweb on the train back from Scotland. The skiing may have been low carbon, but it wasn't really any cheaper per day than going abroad! Not to worry though, all under budget, so quite happy.
Anyway had a hour or so wandering along Prince's Street this morning (between breakfast with one friend and coffee with another!) and thought I'd have a bit of a browse at the bras. Wasn't apparently in the mood though, as didn't find anything I particularly liked, except one but then couldn't be bothered going to get another size - could it be the lure of shopping is waning?! :rotfl:
Anyway, have now ordered a few on figle@ves with a voucher code giving me 10% off and free postage (ECAT10 if anybody's interested), so can try on at my leisure and return what I don't want. I've even gone for some matching knickers - you stylish ladies are having a good influence on me!
I've also realised that I haven't added my eBay winnings from selling unwanted clothes to my total. So will add that now, and then bra costs when I decide what I'm keeping.Total debt: [STRIKE]£9473.62[/STRIKE] £7,384.87 22% PAIDTAF #25 NSD 8/12 | Food £43.45/£50 | eBay 0/20 | Exercise 5/18:T Proud to be Dealing with my Debt :TDFD: June 20150 -
Hi all,
I'll have a bit of a spend to declare soon - I have purchased a fair amount of stuff from the Dorothy perkins website with the 20% code; wasn't sure what I really wanted for my holiday so just brought with intention of returning what I dont want0 -
I am resisting the DP site as the dress I like probably won't be right in the other colour either... and have managed to click away from the dress I liked at Tesco which is now half price (since I have no idea when I'd wear it).
Debating if allowing myself a small percentage of what I've 'saved' as a 'reward' to go towards the Joe Browns wish list is counterproductive...

I have £36 to declare on two skirts (including postage- do other people include this?)
One skirt is from eBay so I'm hoping it'll fit as it's no returns. Guess I'll have to relist it if not!!No. More. Waste.
