    Mavvy well done with no spends. :T
    I also have no spends to report. I've had another sort through my wardrobe and have some more things to go on Fleabay and a bag for the charity shop.

    I've been asked if I can work 3 days instead of 2 starting next week, and my contract has been extended from 3 months until end of the year so less time to shop which is probably doing me a favour. Coupled with spending time trying to sort my Mum out (she had a fall and fractured both legs) and also sort out her house (needs lots of roof repairs and general maintenance) I am being kept on the straight and narrow :D

    Thank you Fedupandskint.
    Last year at the beginning When I started the challenges it was painful at times to go shopping and not spend (but this forum helped me through the pain barrier) and then as the year went on it became easier. I don't want to go back to where I would go out on pay day and blow all my spare money in one hit.

    Evening all, sorry I've been AWOL, I've been in the U.S. with work, but also had a day and a half weekend there....including a visit to an outlet mall...nuff said :o did include another trainer purchase $150 down to $99. Had a fitting with them too and hopefully they will help correct my ankle problem.

    Also ordered an item last night with a discount offer which is tried on in the U.S. But they didn't have my size.

    Need to review some gym stuff (one sports bra is approx 7 yrs old :eek:) but really there's not much else I need. (Not that I really needed anything I bought in the U.S. :o)
