I would like to take part please with a budget of £300 but I would like to spend a lot less. I have three weddings to attend and new trainers needed to kick start my exercise regime. I've not really used eBay before so probably need to get to grips with it quite quickly as I have clothes which I intend to have shrunk out of within a few months which could be sold.Virgin £1799 22/12/11 no more balance transferring ever again. 0% until Feb 2013:cool: Balance now £1626.45 on 13/02/12

wow i love the idea of freedom days. I shall haver to rifle through my 2 wardrobes to dig out more clothes! I rarely wear skirts and dresses but i have plenty in my wardrobe. 1st thing to get done out of my budget is to resole & heel a pair of boots. I've been meaning to do this for 4 YEARS!!! Now is definately the time since the boots cost me £70 in river island!Was debt free then ex walked out and COVID hit.0

Hi tink1981 - welcome & I'll add you to the list.
supasick - definitely take care of your shoes & boots, it means good quality ones last longer, it's not that cheap though0 -
Great idea - I never really pay attention to what I spend on clothes though they are usually sales or supermarket purchases - I am also planning on losing weight this year and will need to buy smaller clothes if the plan all comes together
Put me down for £300 please. . . .0 -

Hiya
Can I join in please? I need something to keep me on track! I am also wanting to loose weight (about 3 stone) and have lots of clothes of varying sizes although not much in my current size!
I am going to budget £100.00 for me. I will buy my son (5) his clothes as he needs them so won't include those. Hubby sorts himself out.
I could do with a sports bra and some knickers and socks but that should be no more than £30. I will need some sandles in the summer but don't need coats or shoes/boots so that should make my target do able. I won't count any money made/spent from Ebay as that isn't 'real' money if you know what I mean!
Good luck everyone.
