kerri I got that email at 5pm yesterday and by 5.05pm I had checked out with 3 pairs I was really quick or I knew they would sell out within minutes. £19.99 a pair what a bargain

Haha! I resisted, mostly because we've just moved and I need to adjust to a new budget (read less disposable income) and also as I got these while I was in the US

My gymwear box is now full ...so either I need to rearrange my clothes or stop buying new stuff....or both

Which ones did you bag to make me envious of?

mint glacier
golden lizard (OR something like that)
and Bubblegum something or other :rotfl:
Ordered so quickly I cant remember.

I have got rid of every pair I owned in Black :rotfl:Lifes to short to wear Black gym stuff Boring and bland I feel so every pair gone and sucking the life out of someone else now. Just glad its not me

Ohhh, nice one Mav, they're all lovely. I have a couple of black pairs that are therma heat (or something like that) can't remember the last time I wore them really as I just get too hot running. Even when its snowing I end up in my vest :eek:

Just realised I have missed loads of posts, don't seem to be getting the notification emails any more!

Some serious bargains being found out there!

I haven't been great, need to see what I'm keeping before I add anything to my total. There was an amazing sale at Lindy bop... And I've got to go away for work which always makes me feel I need something new, for a confidence boost.

But they didn't come in time anyway!

The sales are always a time of extreme weakness for me. And I never seem to think of saving the money, I just buy twice as much. I think I am feeling a bit down at the moment as well. Need to stop the spending now though.

Also need to start eating properly and looking after myself, then I might look better in my clothes and not feel the shopping urge. And logging onto this site every day might help

One of the tops I ordered is now half price. Sending the full price one back and ordering it again.

£10 on a pair of trainers from Peacocks. Needed something a bit more waterproof as I had been wearing a lot of ballet/slip on shoes.

Hi All - not been on for a while.

I've bought a pair of black skinny jeans. Didn't know whether they would suit me so bought a cheap & cheerful pair from Sports Direct. They are nothing special but look good with the tunic tops and make a lot of my clothes more wearable. £12.99 to add to total. Half way through the year and I've spent over 2/3 of my budget.

Have de-cluttered a lot of clothes since I've been back from holiday - must be around 50 items

Hi All
Tikiboo leggings came they are so nice really impressed with these at £19.99 in the sale.
Havent added them to my total as have sold so much Im still quids in .But will start adding anything purchased from now on.

I am trying not to buy and being surrounded with clothes for the sales is really helping its like working in a sweet shop and not eating sweets as you are fed up looking at them.:rotfl:I did buy a lovely Tunic top (I think Wallis) for £2.50 at the boot sale and a new merino wool cardi for £1 So thats my spends done

Have just sorted the hall out for Saturday and there is sooooo much stuff about 750 items + so hope to have a good morning with it and sell a bit

Wish I could come mavvymoo but its my sons birthday party tomorrow!

Maybe the 'sweet shop' thing is the answer - I'll get a weekend job at a store I like and hopefully that will cure me

I doubt it though! But at least I'd get a discount on what I bought.

Danger zone coming up this week - charity sale at work where everything is cheap... on the plus side, most things are sample size which I am not! Will try to only get things for other people.

Hope you all have a lovely weekend!
