    Debt-free and Proud!
    Freeing a pair of purple, grey and black shoes today. I keep wearing the same flat black pumps to work, so it's time for a change. I may have to free a different pair of shoes every day this week!

    Really pleased that I've made it this far without even being tempted to buy anything. :)

    not doing freedom monday as home alone so wearing housework clothes!
    went dancing last night even tho still felt a bit off colour but had a good evening and wore my new phase eight black lace skirt(£69 down to £20) with a black cami and a really old blcak cardi with large gold sequins dotted around and had compliaments about the look:)I also wore for the 1st time the gold stilleto shoes my mad friend talked me into buying early december(I don't do high heels due to toe op and fat feet!) I worn them from the house to the car and walked across the dance floor in tem before changing into my dance shoes,it took me more time to fasten them than I did walking in them:rotfl::rotfl:(we do ballroom dancing so wear proper dance shoes by the way)

    Morning all, glad to see challenges are continuing.
    I had a little bit of a spend last Tuesday, have kept all of my receipts but not totted it all up yet. 2 gorgeous tops, but more worryingly a grey fitted skirt (I have 3 exactly the same, all of which are currently ill fitting).
    As a result I am way over budget for January. I have decided on a no spend February, something I have never done before.

    I am doing the crazy clothes challenge in conjunction with a decluttering plan, it is all going slowly to say the least. I am hanging onto the idea that it takes 21 days for a new idea to embed and become a habit.
    Have a great day everyone and keep up the good work.

    Good luck on your no spend feb :T
    Debt free as of 29.10.2020 🎉😁

    Morning all!

    Due to expected freezing temperatures, the fact we're going away to Lincolnshire for a mid-week break and hope to do some walking and because one of my cats has taken to sleeping on/with my wooly hat, I have just bought a new one from Primarni in the sale for £1 making £4 spent so far this year:) (still waiting for that HnM order though...:p)
  • Evening All :wave:

    Think I will be returning the majority of my spends during the next week, as 2 of the girls in my office made redundant today : (, and can't really justify keeping them at mo. Need to be sensible about these things! Evening job hunting for me.

    The rest of you seem to be doing better than me! lol
    EH xx

    Everhopeful - I normally lurk on this thread rather than post. Sorry to hear about the situation at work, job hunting sounds like a sensible plan. Hope either things settle down at work, or the job hunting goes well.
