Please add me to your list!
I have racked up 30k over the past few years on clothes, makeup, hair, pet stuff and random crap. I just buy buy buy!
Luckily I had my lightbulb moment Xmas time just gone...but only due to completely running out of credit to spend!
I now have a budget and trying to get myself sorted but watch this space...

hey guys - little spend today - took the kids to the park and bought them each a cake on the way home - despite having just spent £170 on a HUGE shop and having cupboards crammed to the rafters!

but - i was going to take them to planet happy (playcentre) which would have cost £7 entry plus coffee/drinks etc etc so not too bad me thinks!

Buffy -brave move but sometimes it has to be done. febs a short month so not too long to hang on!

OK I have been quietly spending...

Pink cowboy boots they shouted me off the shelf, I have wanted cowboy boots for about erm 15 years, got a beige pair already but these really did call me. When I went over to investigate they were my size! And also reduced from £32.99 to £3!

Now they are mine!

Noooooooo, you need to do the opposite to keep away from Ebay, staying in will just give you too much Ebay face time :rotfl:

Well the urge has passed - for now anyway!! LOL

I did have to borrow 60p off one of my mates at work this morning to buy a can of diet coke cause I'm sooooooooooo tired whilst working at the pub (my second job) last night and I need caffine.

Anyway, I get paid monday and my shopping list consists of:

Hairdye (I've got a money off voucher and will get pigsback points too)
An intensive conditioner cause my hair is soooo dry (I'll get the cheapest one possible)
A car wash (I live in a block of flats and there is no way I can clean the car in the car park and the car is beyond dirty!)

Are this good spends or am I being stupid again?!

Morning btw - honestly, what would I do without this thread!
