The Guilty Pleasure Thread

melspur

mine are good coffee, cant bear cheap stuff, it tastes awful. chocolate, biscuits and crisps, but only ones on offer, and books, books and more books, i'll read just about anything and often have two or three laying in different places that i read when i'm near them, usually one in car, for bad traffic, one downstairs and one up in bedroom

What a great idea for a thread!

Mine and OH’s has got to be takeaways - chippy, Chinese or Indian. I have been attempting to reduce the frequency but we still have on average one a week. Mind you, it used to be worse than that and we would often have lunch out on a Saturday as well, which is quite rare now!

Not in the slightest!

I thought of another one though I'm sad to say - a nice glass of gin and bitter lemon! Strictly Tesco's own brand these days though, which works out about 70p a glass. I'm ever so good at sneaking plastic bottles into the pub now

Oh so many

Magazines - I have tons
Candles - I have this thing about home fragrancing, candles just seem like the best option - thankfully I'd have to travel a fair bit to get hold of Yankee Candles so usually it's Tesco or Wilkos
Chocolates - Hotel Chocolate membership, but I love them sooooo much. May have to reduce when I'm on mat leave

Mine is magazines - the montly glossy ones and the weekly gossip ones. I have cut down but I still buy a few from our local newsagent every Tuesday morning.

Well the list is better than it used to be, but....

Fresh ground Real Coffee be it at home or Nero's, sorry Starbucks fans Nero's win's by miles and every tenth cup is free! :T If I could take an espresso machine to work I would but sadly it has to be (organic,fairtrade,quality) instant._pale_

Next is Aveda Shampure, so expensive but 1L does last 6mths even with everyday use. Then Molton Brown Arctic Birch shower gel, again a little goes a long way. Oh and Dior Homme skincare (the best I have ever found) and again a little lasts a long time.

I have given up booze totally (18mths+) so I am saving a great deal that way.Replaced Champagne with Elderflower Refresher (Duchy Originals) and wine/beer with San Pellegrino Soft drinks,divine if you can find them, I HATE Coke and anything with artifical sweetners :cheesy: Also very expensive dinners out etc have gone, as have decent clothes . I do miss them.....

So forgive my sins DFW's but I am trying, really I am.
