    • My hair too (although I dont' get my stripes done as often as I used to)
    • Quality produce
    • My bed and linen (linen lasts longer when its better quality IMHO)
    • Holidays :D I would rather not go than stay in a rubbish hotel - I guess its a life of staying in hotels for work that has made me like this.
    :D Thanks to MSE, I am mortgage free!:D

    some time ago there was a thread on what people wouldn't compromise on no matter what. I'm wondering, as things get tighter I'm wondering how many of those principles have gone bye the bye. For me the veg box, organic produce and fairly traded tea, coffee and bananas have gone by the wayside although i still won't compromise on free range eggs and chicken and eco washing up liquid and washing powder.
    I'm going to feed our children non-organic food and with the money saved take them to the zoo - half man half biscuit 2008
