Any form of holiday including days out unless they're free and not too far away that way we only pay for petrol.

Eating out/takeaways, we used to get a take away every other Friday but it was about £20 a go which is just a waste of money.
Gym, my old one was only £30 a month unlimited but the cheapest I have found here with a pool is £48 a month and then its extra early morning and you have a £60 joining fee.0 -

Luxury. We used to have to get out of the lake at three o'clock in the morning, clean the lake, eat a handful of hot gravel, go to work at the mill every day for tuppence a month, come home, and Dad would beat us around the head and neck with a broken bottle, if we were LUCKY![Deleted User] wrote:I miss my 4ply toilet paper, back to the single sheet folded twice, need to be careful.0 -

Gym membership is extreme. My first one was 40 a month plus 50 joining, 2nd one 33 a month, 3rd 19 a month..
