    Spend to confess to - bought some new trainers (£8.99 in sale) as the ones I have now aren't comfy for running in, it's like I'm running in socks. Just opened my bottom desk drawer to find a carrier bag and found some decent trainers in there for when I go for lunchtime walks in summer, whoops!

    So would it be cheating if we sell any clothes, to credit back onto our challenge total? :think:

    I didn't quite make it a no spend April after caving in to a pair of shoes for £12 reduced from £25. Uhmmed and arhhed about keeping them but in the end decided to as I love my pair of faux snakeskin platform high heels which I WILL WEAR!

    On track for a no spend May though - all going well and managed to withstand the lure of the sales again - phew!

    Total is £101.28/200 - almost on track to get halfway through the year - will have to go for another couple of No Spend months to make sure
    final unsecured debt to repay currently £8333

    April totals update!

    021 Mad_scientist - £0/£200

    Reluctant as I am to admit it, I'm not this well behaved :D

    I have spent £70/ £200 so far, I am number #22 on the front page so this might be why it's different.

    I have had a NS May so far and am busy this weekend so should keep out of the shops and out of trouble! My garden also looks like a field so I have no excuse for going into town :o

    I am up for a Freedom Friday this week, I switched over my wardrobe at the weekend so all my summer stuff is at the front now and it's all stuff I haven't seen for 6 months!
