    Good idea kerri
    Maybe we could set our budget as £1 for every mile we run :rotfl:So if we up the budget we need to up the miles.

    Those leggings are on Eb*y from a UK seller who got theirs before the Chinese new year ;)

    I could go right off you y'know ;) I actually had a quick look and wonder how they can make any £ based on the price they're selling taking into account seller fees.

    Clocked up another 6miles this morning (flipping freezing!) - I'm not sure my account to cope with £1 per mile atm :rotfl:

  • £6.99 on an orange t shirt with sequinned neckline. Really couldn't leave it on the sale rail.
    Total spends now £26.98/£300.
    Well within budget so not feeling too bad.
  • Gave in and bought the boots. Every other pair I found were just not right. Most of them are so ugly :eek:

    But also bought another limited edition tee from qwertee. It's an Adventure Time / Indiana Jones crossover "Archaeology Time" which, obviously, as an Egypt/Archaeologist...

    So that's me laughably over budget this month and at £163.53 / 240 for the year. I have no budget for March, and my April budget (which is my birthday month so that'll be fun!) is all of £3 :rotfl:

    Thanks all for the warm welcome.

    I haven't done any kind of these challenges before. Am also on the grocery challenge too. :eek:

    Will make life interesting though. ;)

    Declaring a second no spend month early. I'm off sick with Gastroenteritis so won't be going shopping this weekend.
    Woo Hoo! 2 down, 4 more to go.

    Lexbubbles £25 sounds like a great price for a pair of boots that you love - enjoy them :)

    Hello Everyone,

    I would very much like to join this challenge too!
    My aim is only to buy clothes that I really need. If I do need them to try and find them at a discount.
    I do shop in sales to keep the costs down anyway. My wardrobe is full and if I can keep the weight off that I have lost I can fit into all of my clothes.

    Good Luck Everyone

    Welcome newbies.

    I haven't spent anything this month within my restrictions and actually got a refund on something I returned, so I'm now £12.50 up for the year.

    Am currently having new wardrobes built, still in workshop at mo, so a good opportunity to have a really good sort out.
    Spend less now, work less later.

    Went to do my grocery shopping and saw a lovely tunic top in the TU sale at £9. Couldn't not treat myself as it is one I have looked at before and not bought.
    Total spends now are £35.98/£300.
    Still in budget at the moment ��
