    Quote "Also, going to so many gigs all over the UK (and europe on occasion :o )"

    - I'd see that as a justifiable expense!!! There are many bands I'd have loved to seen that I can't now for various reasons- mostly sad....and I'd pay a lot to undo some of those decisions..(.OK, I'd owe a lot more...)
    For what I've done...I start again...And whatever pain may come ...Today this ends... I'm forgiving what I've done -AF since June 2007
  • Yeah, I gotta admit, I don't actually regret those trips, just the amount they cost me! lol

    Kids bXXXXy magazines.. where they rip off the useless "toy/gimmick" and lose/leave in the middle of the floor and the magazine that gets scribbled on if I'm lucky before going for recycling.

    My OH would say the horse but I strongly disagree :rotfl:

    My biggest waste was clothes, shoes and handbags x x

    I'm with you there penguin83!

    My horse died just b4 christmas & although we will be MUCH better off with no more neddies, when I look back through my memories, I cannot regret one single penny that I spent on him, or any of the others

    Buying DVD's that i never watch

    Takeaways that ruin the diet

    Books that i read too fast - i need to find someway to swop books with people or something!

    Smoking - just gloss over it

    Flashy light machines (or quiz machines) in the pub which means when im driving to save money and making 2 glasses of coke last all night i spend £5 in the machine instead

    There are way too many there, think i need to work on them, lol


    Try readitswapit.co.uk for the books - brilliant idea!!
