Put away your purse & become debt-averse

Thank you for the name of the shop as I had never heard of it before.  Turns out there is one in a local town of mine.  Had a quick look online and the first thing that came up was something I'd been hunting for since it started getting cold.  And they have it in my size

This shop range is 2 "future proofing" my retirement with their products. They do a great sale too. Styles and materials are pretty much timeless, so I count them as a good investment.
With the purchases I have made I need to offset the costs albeit this should be done the other way round 
I need to urgently revisit the budget sheet as I am intending to finish work sooner or change my job to see which way to do sort this.

They've started selling clothes from that shop in Mr M and Mr S now. The HT and I were shopping on a day out in the summer and found a dress in a store near Manchester. I am short so I rarely find dresses that suit but this one was perfect so the HT made me buy it. The clever thing is it can be worn on it's own in summer but can also be worn with thick tights and a cardi in winter. It is totally worth what I paid for it - especially as my dress shopping seems to go at one every five or so years. I'm usually in jeans and a t-shirt.

Sounds like a great shopping trip....took me a while to work out "Marine- Condiment- sounding shop"...lol.  I agree presents should be about needs and not just wants. Last year, my daughter gave me a set of mesh produce bags because she knows I hate buying veg in plastic bags and MIL got me some lovely fleecy socks.  I love presents like that. 

Nope, I still can't get the shop 

Got it ..... about 2.30 this morning

Well marine relates to the SEA and a condiment is SALT if that helps?

Oh you have been making me smile with all your guessing.
@ziggy2407 - I hope your sudden realisation at 2.30am didn't mean that my obfuscation kept you awake! I pinged awake at 4am myself for absolutely no good reason that I could think of. Insomnia is so draining....not to mention infuriating, isn't it?
I didn't mean to set everyone puzzling, I was just trying not to advertise.

Yes, that's exactly the place that I meant. The place with the cathedral and the city walls has the condiment shop itself. I seem to think that you were close by that place at the weekend.

Love that shop but find I have to go in to take a look as it's rarely what I imagined when I order online. The clothes last really well. You really had a good shop there foxgloves! Sometimes it falls into place doesn't it.
