Talking of weddings... I have my MIL funeral soon. She was a wonderful MIL, welcomed me into the family with open arms. I am going to have to think about what I am going to wear. Hummm! Do I want to buy something? Or Can I find something in my wardrobe?2025 Fashion on a ration 0/66 coupons

Yes she was a lovely lady. She was 94 and reminded me of my own nanny.
Still no spend for me this year. I am also avoiding all shops and online sites. I have a very big hair dressing bill this month as I buy my straightening product upfront. It saves me a fortune buying it myself but costs me £170 every 18 months. Also my straighteners broke and I had to replace then at a cost of £111 incl p&p.2025 Fashion on a ration 0/66 coupons

Hi all.
I haven't bought anything since my work clothes splurge. I'm quite happy with everything I have at the moment, hopefully I will feel the same when the weather finally improves.Debt Free and now a saver, conscious consumer, low waste lifestyler
