Giving up Money for Lent

pippo

cafcgirl - we haven't taken the P out of your belt yet!! - so be warned!!

Peaches - you are not alone - we are only a trifle demob happy - one week off :j
however I think we are all having guilt feelings if we buy during our 'allowed time' - seems a bit like my so called 'ex catholic friends' - you may not really believe - but the guilt stays with you!!

If only I could recite 7 Hail M's & 6 thingmy wotsits and all my debt would be absolved!!

For give my ramblings fellow unnecessarians - my un- lawful, sorry, unnecessary spend has been on that evil vodka drink!!:beer:

CAFCGirl

ahhhhhhhhh evil vodka................. where guilty feelings hide!!!

pippo

B****r - been found out!!
Don't do it often, but on a "school night"!!

Wouldn't care, but 3 bottles in the cupboard that I haven't touched (YET!)

So the spend was very unnecessary!!!

Off to bed now with acup of strong coffee, water and possibly asprin!!

Ask me tomoorrow if it was worth it!!

pippo

No spends & no vodka today though!!

Getting prepared to get back on the wagon!!

Can I have an extra day please, before we start new challenge as I still haven't been shopping. I am getting a lift next Monday to the grand metropolis!:huh:

pippo

When do we start again??
I know I need to, but also know I need to buy a new bra (or Two)! I guess one is necessary, but not sure about two!!

I would be really interested to find out the most unnecessary thing that have been bought in our week off!!

CAFCGirl

Tomorrow people!

Watch this space, wont be till the evening though, so it'll start on monday.
PoohBear: Since you've asked so nicely and you're a regular from the previous I'll let you start on tuesday....

but be warned people this is under special consideration!!!!

Tee hee hee!

Boy has this week been hard work .... spending money is wearing me out!!!:D

This week I have spent:

£349.02 - Balance of my table and chairs (but had been there the whole of the previous challenge and kept on making excuses about buying them and could they hold them for another week - but in my defence these were bought BEFORE the lent challenge began!!!)
£39.50 - Fat face 3/4 trousers (but am taking these back as saw some on Ebay and 'won' them for £16:j )
£8.10 on pair of shorts from EBay
£26.10 on meal for 4
£45 on fleece for OH
£44.36 on nice food and alcohol (hic!) for friends who stayed the weekend
£24 on two tops and trousers at Tesco (but these also went back and as I had a £6 voucher off they don't take this off so am £6 up :j - refund £30)
£6.50 bather for DD

Yep, I think that is about it ...... so you can see why I am so exhausted!!! Can't wait for tomorrow to arrive and I can start the next challenge.:D
