    I wish I could say that I was a shining example of a DFW but I'd be lying. Seriously thinking of changing my sig to "I can resist anything except temptation!" I am 100% better than I was and make considered buys now rather than purely spontanious ones! I love craft stuff but havent gt any for months, just started running (cos I thought it was cheap - yeah right!) so have to get some stuff but when I do I take time to research & get the cheapest & with cashback! I find it almost impossible to say no to red wine but also thinking of giving up for a while as feel better when I dont drink...

    Well my weakness has to be magazines, at one point it was almost an addiction, I can laugh about it now but I was spending so much on them every month it wasn't funny at all.

    Now I only buy 1 gossipy magazine a week at a cost of £1.10, plus I buy the Pregnancy and Birth magazine every month (don't know how much it is)

    Hubby's weakness has to be lager, he will only buy himself 4 cans every Saturday to watch Gillette Soccer Saturday whereas before he would easily get through crate upon crate.

    Sky+ - seriously I could not go back to life with adverts, what a waste of time!

    And DVDs, but in my defence, I hardly ever buy one over £5 so they are always bargains and I get my Quidco whenever possible!
