    Right I'm going to join in for this and say£10!!!

    I really don't need anything apart from some new knickers, so £10 for that and lets see if I can resist for the year. I am desperately trying to get my debt paid off in 2014 so can't be spending unnecessarily.

    What a fantastic challenge!!! I spend LOADS on clothes, don't even know the exact amount... Only buy shoes from Clarks due to my wide feet, so that costs quite a bit. Can't resist sales as well...

    I'd love to join and set myself a target of £300. I don't think I've ever spent that little!

    Very impressed by all who manage with a hundred or so - amazing!

    I shall be following this with interest. I'm one of those people with a bulging wardrobe but nothing to wear. I need to shift a stone and will then be able to shop quite extensively from my wardrobe.

    I will need new undies at some point, but am waiting to shift the weight first. May also need to look at my summer clothes if the Welsh weather warrants it in 2014. Going to skulk in the shadows rather than go all out and join the challenge. First goal is to make it to the end of the month with no clothing spends.

    I'd like to join, aiming to spend zero on clothes and shoes .
  • Hi can I join. I am hoping to save lots of money this year to reduce debts etc. I will say £100 for me and also the same for my daughter, she is 5 and just recently had a few bits of clothes for Xmas so she won't need any for a bit. Plus we have a woman in town who sells clothes (Next, H&M etc) at 10 items for £10 which is fabulous as that way I can dress my little lady in brands but not have to pay too much :) win win.

    Ooh, would love to join this challenge please :j

    I have a budget of £120 set for the year for myself and DS. Half of which I am aiming to get from earning Nectar points (Adpoints and Canvass surveys) and to spend on only sale items in SBurys.

    DS is 13 and into men's size already, but he's not into designer stuff or the latest trends.

    I'll exclude school shoes as a pair of Clarks mens will steal 2/3rds of the budget otherwise :rotfl:
    Back on the DFW Wagon:

    CC - £3,300 on 0% til 04/2020
    CC - £4,500 on 0% til 02/2019
    Loan - £12,063.84 as at 4/1/18
