    Congrats on buying your wedding dress citizenkitten :j

    Could I be a pest and declare a belated No Spend Jan and Feb? I would have declared before if I knew there were happy little jumping chappies to be got :D I am aiming for another in March too.

    Haven't been on here much because I haven't been shopping, so ..... I guess the challenge is working :rotfl: I think I still have £30 of xmas money before I start on this year's actual budget but I really want to clear out my wardrobes before I buy anything new at all.

    So, # 22, still at £0/£200 :A
    No more buying unnecessary toiletries 2018

    Well done citizenkitten on buying your wedding dress! Big congratulations:T

    Yes I am up for a Mini mad March challenge! I don't think I shall be buying but you never know :o definitely need to check buttons on a couple of pairs of work trousers and I think one of the zips has bust too - can do most repairs but hate doing zips.

    Have worn quiete a few of the jumpers and tops my friend passed onto me a week ago or so plus the wooly hats too so have felt I have got a new Spring wardrobe!

    Keep it up everyone!
