Old Style.............

Penny-Pincher!!

I apologise in advance as this is not going to be an 100% OS post....but Im so ashamed of myself:o ......OH & I went to Bluewater this morning after hospital visit as I had alot of M&S vouchers given for my birthday last week and needed (wanted;) ) a nice outfit for my nephews wedding in a few weeks. Anyway, we popped into Monsoon and I *accidently* bought a new suit costing £195:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: ....and if that wasnt bad enough, we went on to M&S and I spent another £235 on 3 skirts, 5 tops and a matching bag....I am a BAD BAD BAD BAD girl:o .....granted the clothes from M&S were mainly (£200)paid for by vouchers but I cant believe I bought the suit. It is a classic one, but I feel so guilty....maybe I should take it back....it does look grand though:rolleyes: The clothes can all be mixed and matched..so have utilised there...but ouch!

Anyway, getting back to OS....still no bread in the BM-will get that on later...promise! DW has been emptied, toilet cleaned and 3 washloads done and dried on the line. OH is doing some DIY in the kitchen and DD is upstairs HW'ing:D .....peace!

Popped into Waitrose on way home..good job we charged the buggy and bought £45 worth of food and it cost us £16 after all the vouchers we had:T

Tootles-Hun we love ya...pleased dont leave us.....your one of the saine ones:rotfl: and we need you to guide us:D

Hugs peeps.

Just want to report my one bit of OS - I've USED my slow cooker, and it's been a great success!!

:T Onward and upwards from here on in :T

Don't think the new pedometer is working or maybe I should move away from MSe and spreadsheets

E'lass - how's your August Bank Holiday going? Did you have a fun shopping trip?

cat - I had to 'fess up in the Freebies board that I actually received ... two. I've resisted temptation and the boys are having them in their lunchbox tomorrow.

catznine - you might find this site interesting, Sloe Gin Recipes if you check the forum pages as well, you'll see they do sloe gin chocolates too :drool:

Welcome oops a daisy - xxxdarlingxxx - susiesaver :wave:

PP, don't you dare take the suit back! It does you a world of good to have a splurge (love that word) now and again.
Sorry I can't type much, my hands are bad and I've made them worse by painting the wrought iron gate today. I love painting it's so relaxing but that gate has driven me mad with all the twirls and twiddles. I was very OS though and chatted to the neighbours while I worked, lol.
Have a nice evening all.

:hello: There's a message, 2nd one down on the Old Style front page that is permanently 'stuck' there called "Welcome to Old Style" and about half way down that first post there is a link to standard old style abbreviations. There are a number of abbreviations we use, so if you get a spare moment, it might be worth taking a peek.

MrsMW ouchie, rest up those hands.
