I know what you mean mm I've got some primark clothes that are fine, but similarly I have some cheaper brand clothing that are cr*p and as soon as you wash them, no matter how careful, they go out of shape or 'bobbly'. It's a real mine field. Well done on your jewellery sales!!!

Well done on your jewellery sales MM! :j November is deffo looking possible. :beer:

Hmmm re: clothes, i always think its best to have good quality basics, i.e. black trousers, jeans etc. and then just buy "fashion" stuff cheaply from Primark etc.



Oooo i have just upgraded my mobile phone. I got a letter saying i could from O2, and was contemplating selling it on ebay, but to be fair i havent "treated" myself for a while and Monty (my cat) has chewed my current phone and its charger, so it will probably die before christmas. :rolleyes:

I have ordered a Sony Ericson W890i in Mocha (it looks more coppery in real life):



:beer:

Thanks both of you :-)

oooh new phone.. i luuurrrvvve new phones... don't look into the phone.....stay away...!!! its the one big thing i spend my money on (hence how i ended up with an iphone) but in my defence i have used it loads, including finding this site on it so it has actually saved me money!! (hmmmmm) although i have been very good ignoring the text from o2 saying i can upgrade to the new iphone for £99, didnt want to signup for another 18 months contract. also i have my eye on the samsung tocca, although i love my iphone the camera is complete pants and the tocca seems to have all the iphone features plus a 5mp camera.
I'll shut up now i could and do witter on for hours about phones!
you could still get some cash for your old one amy,sell on ebay or do it through envirofone on quidco for cashback :-)

I love new phones to MM. Although last time i opted for the £100 cash back towards my bill, but im dead excited at the mo... how sad!

And some fantastic news, my engagement ring has just sold on ebay for £100! :j And they paid straight away! :beer: I was just chatting with a guy at work about my ring and how much trouble i have had selling it and the next thing i look and its sold! :eek: I then muttered something about winning the lottery, you never know eh?

I've just had an item sell on ebay for just over 40 quid and still got auctions left to finish-should get over 100 quid today when my auctions finish fingers crossed.
I could do with a new phone. Mine is quite old, but I can't justify buying one yet

moneymabel

and cath thats brill-£100!! thats another £70 i have to find to catch up with you 2 today...oh hang on i got a fiver from slp so thats £65...hmm possibly not..!

Thanks MM. And i won another movie ticket from Diet Coke today, they say things happen in 3s so i suppose mine are:

* New Phone
* Engagement Ring Sold
* Cinema Ticket

:j Not bad.

i dont reckon your new phone counts as you have sort of earned that over your contract so i think you are still due another good thing ;-)

**Amy**

Oooo i like your way of thinking MM You never know whats round the corner.

I think my ring sold as kind of like a good karma thing for me sorting my CCJ out, if that makes sense?

Im on a huge high now :rotfl: and yes I will of course remember you all when im sunning myself on my own private Island! :cool:

moneymabel

yep that makes sense totally- you'd better stock up on the suntan lotion then!
