My sins include:
* spending money in costa lot coffee this morning with a friend in town. We had 2 drinks each and a pastry but my friend lives right in town and we easily could have gone there for a coffee and a chat and saved about a tenner!
* going out tonight with a mate for a quiet drink and to watch the dodgy kareoke... I only have a tenner in my purse, which makes a total of twenty quid spent on socialy activities for the day!!!
* lending the man in my life a tenner to get a cab over to see me twice this week. waste of money, cos we argued both times!!
Sins confessed!Ever wonder about those people who spend £2 apiece on those little bottles of Evian water? Try spelling Evian backward.0 -
This is a thread I could get into! And will probably be a very regular poster to!
My sins:
- chinese takeaway last night cos I couldn't be bothered to cook
- discovered ticketmaster has my (now cut up) credit card details saved and there's a few gigs I want to see...........guess the rest
- spent 33 quid at Ann Summers party on Fri night (although got 90 quids worth of stuff for that - hostess gift and commission)
- found out Duran Duran are doing a gig in Cork in June and made tentative plans to go despite not having the moneyGOD BLESS DURAN DURAN

Oooh fabulous thread!
I think this is the one I've been waiting for.....:D
This week I have:
* Agreed to go to a wedding in the Netherlands that I know I damn well can't afford to go to - but I booked the flight anyway. (I will get free accommodation & food/ booze though...)
* Bought myself a bottle of something in Sainsburys today which I am sipping now....
* And a little late but I'll put it down anyway....last Friday I bought £30+ worth of stuff from a Body Shop party....:eek:Bank Balance: In the black for the moment.

ok, who's going to the "Priest" and what do we have to do for penance? What type of Hail Marys do we have to do
My Sins have been that I have not been doing Moozies Sunday to Friday challenge and as a reslut I have been drinking Coffee and eating out why out and about in Town meaning that I blew my budget in a major fashion.

Wow great idea for a weekly thread! Or even daily.
Over the last week, I spent four pounds taking the M6 toll road instead of going through Birmingham as we were on our way to Liverpool from Hertfordshire and traffic was heavy.
Let my OH take me out to Nandos for dinner last week.
Only put two things on ebay last week
Spent 3 pounds on cakes as I was upset on Friday
Not yet called up T Mobile and ask to reduce my bill as I pay 40 pounds a monthDebt Free - done
Mortgage Free - done

Ummmmmmmmmmmm, I feel I will be severly reprimanded for my sins this week:
1.Dominos delivery
2.Sunday pub lunch
3.£12 top from george
4.2 bottles of wine (ok, 2 for £7-not bad from ASDA)
5.not listing LOADS on eBay
I could go on but I fear the chastation (?) from the rest of my very supportive DFW's...

Ummmm. I should have confessed yesterday, but I was out spending money I couldnt afford. Says it all really.
Im going to have a storecupboard dinner week and get back on track as penance!0 -
Can i join in too?
I got paid on Friday after a long hard week and bought:
- make up from benefit (mascara, foundation and some face wash)
-some hair stuff from boots (leave in conditioner, etc)
-some hair clips
Its all because I got my hair cut really short (won't need a hair cut for 6 months) and then realised I dont have the face for it so need products! And need something to control the small bush (on TOP of my head)...gah!
All was for nothing, there is no escaping I look like a boy. With DDs.£6,838.71 all on 0% CC, what a change!0
