    Thanks Cathybird :) it does all help very much so

    So today i have the Window people out providing a quote, ive explained i want them but will only be buying them in the next 20% sale they have. Just wished i could wave a magic wand and get my house done. So frustrating, I just know these windows are doors are going to cost a small fortune. I have an old house and i want to keep my sashes, restore what can be restored and new for the ones that have completly had it. They come out at around £2-3000...each! the brick work also needs altering as the people that had this house before really did ruin it. Anyway enough of my moaning, saving is the way forward and one day I will have a beautiful house :)
    Today im meeting friends for coffee.. i will allow myself a treat 1 large costa but i wont be going into any clothes shop or charity shops. I think il walk to save parking costs

    Hi WantToBeSE :)
    I've signed up and look forward to reading your thread :) probably with a cuppa later on.

    Im most annoyed with myself, yesterday i went for coffee with my friends and ended up buying for me and them :/ along with going into newlook and buying some half price long boots for £16.
    I didnt want to write it but need to share some of my lows so I can work on things.
    Tonight im maninly packing up ebay parcels to send on monday.
    Hope everyones having a good weekend.
    Note to self....no more spending!
