No spend March for me - no need to go to the shops in the next few days and no intention of doing so. Have hurt my leg - been bothering me on and off for a while and in the rush to get jobs done (want/need to sell the house) I overdid things and the doctor said I had to rest it. Only went out today to take Mother's Day card and present and it was a struggle. Very glad to be back home.My mission in life is not only to survive,but to thrive and to do so with some Passion, some Compassion, some Humour and some Style.NST SEP No 1 No Debt No mortgage0

First spend of the year though I may not keep it. £8.99 on a onesie from A!di! If it doesn't fit - I am tall - my pal, who is shorter than me, will be getting an extra 'Easter egg'.Erma Bombeck, American writer: "If I had my life to live over again... I would have burned the pink candle, sculptured like a rose, that melted in storage." Don't keep things 'for best' - that day never comes. Use them and enjoy them now.0

Away in Peterborough this week. Have been round the shops but have managed to exert a little self control. Popped into Fat Face as I have some vouchers but didn't buy anything.
I can't believe it. I have nearly completed the whole month with NO clothes spend.2025 Fashion on a ration 0/66 coupons

I'm so proud to announce a no spend march!
first no spend month yet! yay!
Lots of temptations but have been an absolute angelI've been loving the daisy patterned tops I've been seeing everywhere so managed to get 30 applique daisies for about £2 on ebay (This is craft supply spending not clothes spending for me
) and I'm going to make my own daisy top using one I've already got. I know mum's bought me a top from Urban outfitters sales instead of an Easter egg (I'm slimming :P) but won't be receiving that until april.

This month I was given a pair of pyjamas for my birthday present, and bought a pair of really nice cargo trousers from eBay for £3.71, which are my new gardening trousers.
The trousers were from my Paypal balance, which I don't include in this challenge, so I can report a No Spend month on clothes
So I'm running at £4/£300
I can't believe it, to be honest!Early retired - 18th December 2014
