another £3.30 today!
Amazing how much I could have potentially spent on magazines.
Also is making me seriously realise just how much money I have wasted in the past! :eek:
I am away tomorrow till Sun so be good!

Just come across this thread and it's great & I'd love to join
My biggest weakness is books which are usually bought on Monday when I help out at a local charity shop.
New Year Resolution for 2007 was no more books but failed miserably after about 4 weeks
This challenge is what I need as I would feel the need to confess!
So, I promise to give up buying books, both new and secondhand, until the end on January 2008

Haven't taken a fancy to any mags.
But with Jan coming up & new mags I will be terribly tempted so my "no mags" savings will rise.

I'm doing well so far, no magazines bought at all (although I did buy the cheapie tv guide for xmas and new year for 80p - that doesn't count, right?).
Will be difficult come Jan I reckon, will need all my resolve! GOD BLESS DURAN DURAN
