Thanks - budget for me and DH charity shop cloths will be £200 which is more than enough in my eyes! I think for me its more a case of not actually spending! I'm not a big clothes spender, luckily, but I do need some good jumpers as I am really feeling the cold. So that is what will l look for.
I am in London this week and have Friday off so will be having a look round the local CS to see what's about!
Added. Sounds like plenty as it is only for CS purchases.
Hope you have a good day off and find something suitable in the CS.0 -
Need a pair of gloves and the pair I want are on an eBay auction
Doh bet I lose.
My hoody order has been dispatched with both colours in, so that was a pleasant surprise.0 -
Happy new year thrifty clothes shoppers.
I have a little spend to report. A lovely fluffy warm sweatshirt from Weird Fish in the sale for £26 (need something warm to wear for yoga) and a grey silk brand new Made In Italy top from the charity shop for £4. Both sparked joy.Crazy clothes challenge 2017 - 30/3000 -
I won the gloves
Paid £9.30 so not quite the bargain they could have been if a bidding war hadn't started in the last hour, but it would have cost me £10 for another pair that I didn't like as much had I lost.

A plain crew necked cardigan from CS - nothing out of the ordinary but it's a lovely shade of burgundy and I am very short of cardigans since the attack of the hungry moths!! £4.49 to add.Shifting my energy for 20200

Went shopping with DM on Sunday as is our annual tradition rather than het buying me main presents at Xmas. She bought me a lovey, bra (sooo comfy) from VS, and a couple of pairs of pants in another store as they were in the sale.
Pretty restrained all in all, though the bra was £30, a departure from my usual £2 primarni ones!Feb 2015 NSD Challenge 8/12JAN NSD 11/16

Oops my budget! Keeping both hoodies I think. Coat is on 0% until February (it wasn't billed in January's statement) but have added it now anyway. Just writing this here in case I wonder whether I have or not when I come to pay for it.0

Evening
still no spend for me. I finished my epic ebaying, 52 items listed, some of them being bundles of trousers, so actually more than 52 items. I listed a bag I have had for a whiled today was asked for a BIN price for it, which was good. It is a lovely bag, and I hope the new owner loves it too. She should receive it tomorrow. the first of the other listings end on Saturday, so I will hopefully spend Sunday packing items to take to the post office.
I will do the sort out of the wardrobe tomorrow to get my Project 333 items finalised
Back to work on Monday but I feel that this week off has been very productive.

Hi there,
I haven't needed to buy anything yet but it looks like I might need to add a pair of flat winter boots to my wardrobe - damaged my knee over Xmas and the only flat things I have are one pair of light weight trainers and my Birkenstocks. All my boots have heels!!!
I'll have to start looking for a bargain 'cause this definitely wasn't in the budget.
Wish me luck
