Good bread (store baked, but I slice and freeze it, so no wastage and a loaf lasts at least a month. Honest)
My Senseo coffee machine.
My cinema subscription (£11/month, but that's 3 nights out. I've given up the coke & popcorn tho)
White wine. (have managed to cut down though)
My car. I try to justify owning it, and I do sometimes use it for work, but in all honesty it is an indulgence. And I love it.
Oh, and my charmin loo roll. The cheap stuff IS a false economy - you use more, andit's rubbich for blowing your nose, so need to buy tissues too.0 -
I Cant give up good nights out and alcohol, im curbing my addiction to bags and shoes though and now realise that there are shoes and bags ive never used in my wardrobe.which is shocking!!!0

i colour my own hair, use shop brand loo roll, mayonaise + salad cream. i like good bread but always buy it 1/2 price and freeze it. i drink very little, dont smoke, get a free gym subscription (hubby works there) i go out very rarely, and do most of my shopping in lidl, all so i can pay a lovely lady £20 per week to come and clean my house


mind you its probably still cheaper than the divorce i would have if she wasnt there

My dogs (but there not exactly expensive! I pay £9pm in pet insurance, but that covers both of them, and a £25 sack of pedigree lasts us 3 months!). No way could I give up the gym (corporate discount makes it £29pm, but also I go there most evenings after work, which stops me going out and spending money!). Also would never sell my Nintendo Wii in a million years!! Oh and sanitary products, that mooncup thing is just not for me!0

Warbies and Nescafe (Decaf). Yes I know it is not real coffee, but it is all I have time for!0
