Glad to be of service Leanne :j I managed the weekend without any big spends, we went out to celebrate my daughters birthday but that money came out of a preplanned weekend. I find it really hard to say no to myself when it comes to home improvements - clothes, make up and jewellery etc hold no interest for me but I can get totally carried away with the home x Anyway the fog is lifting and hopefully I am back on track :beer:
Your post was perfect timing :T
Same here, taking pride in making our house a home. I always buy my children's clothes and shoes first, then homeware and lastly my clothes.
I've even discovered the make up range at £shop, so have even started buying from there when my make up runs out :rotfl:
