me too. i'm struggling with myself today. really want a new pair of jeans. do i need them? not really as i've got about 5 pairs at home but they don't fit/look good. will i get good use from them? hell yeah, we wear what we want to work so i live in jeans.

i really can't find any excuse to justify me buying them ...

is it cheating if i treat myself when i get my reclaimed bank charges back? the charges "owed" is £2,600, I'm estimating I'll get back half. Will put £1000 straight on my card and then £300 to clear joint account OD. can put a bit aside and buy my jeans???

If you're reclaiming 2600 why do you think you'll only get half?

It's your money remember!!!

If you did however, I'm sure we could ignore a wee pair of jeans spending, but shhhhhhhhhhhhhh dont let the rest of the forum know!

I had a brief moment of woohoo lets get organised. Had a bath, have sinced cleaned the bath, done one bout of washing up, got the rubbish together, and one load of washing on....

but the allure of MSE has got me!!!

HI all

I've spent 23p on a stamp and given 9p to my daughter.

Brassiclint maybe you could sell some of the other 5 pairs of jeans if you don't wear them any more?
