    Hello all. I spent £6.99 this week. £5 on two tshirts still unworn and £1.99 which was a necessity as my head got burnt in the sunshine. I won't be risking that again.
    Spend less now, work less later.

    Afternoon All

    Its been ages since I have had chance to sit down for five minutes and catch up with life on here.

    I have had spends this month - a bit difficult to break down as I bought two bundles of clothes on fleabay and dished them out between myself and two D's but spent a total of £12.08 on following

    charcoal tie die maxi dress
    beige casual trousers
    caramel casual trousers
    black skinny jeans
    white lacy shirt
    blue office shirt
    black long sleeved lacy top
    black and white check shirt
    red checked shirt
    Nxt flowery summer top
    2 denim skirts
    Jeans
    Nxt paisley print top
    nxt black and white top
    nxt grey and black spotty top
    black casual but sparkly top
    cargo pants/shorts
    maxi dress bright colours
    green long sleeved top

    So I think I got plenty for my money - like I say it is between three of us - but a couple of things like the denim skirts and a couple of tops will have to be carbooted/CS/Fleabay.

    So total so far

    67.33/100

    I finally broke into the £10 birthday money I'd kept back since March for sandals today. Spent £8 - £3 on some slip on pumps and £5 on some ballet type shoes. Both in Primarni. The latter replace a pair 3 years old that have worn through. The pumps replace a pair that moved to the decorating/gardening ones last year.

    So still no new sandals :rotfl: but I'll manage with the pair I've got this year.

    Not counted out of this budget as was birthday money, but good to keep track of it. So technically still a no spend July and almost half way through the month. :j
    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

    Hi,
    During the week I cracked. Been to white stuff. Spent £192.00 but £50.00 was birthday money and £23.00 was money I got back for selling some shoes. So £119.00 spend. (£19 more than budgeted) Staying away from shops for the rest of this month and next month.
    Bought 1x dress, 1x smock top, 1x cardigan, 1x skirt, 3x t-shirts. Got a 15% discount. So happy that I didn't pay full price for them.
    If I hadn't been doing this I would have/ could have spend at least another £100.00!!!!!

    Bough some cheap sport shoes. It was a need, not a want :)

    £11 spent. That brings me to £95/£300, not bad at all.

    Hi, is it too late for me to join this challenge please? As it happens, I've been having an overhaul of my wardrobe today to see what I can alter and update so as not to spend any more money. Just come across this and it seems like it was meant to be! Ima
    I'm the only one who is stopping me from achieving my goals! :wall:
