"Well it's for me. The moment I buy something for myself an unexpected bill arrives through the door."
Is it unexpected if you know you bought it though?  |

I'd absolutely love a vintage motorbike. I've saved up enough cash to buy one but I've never ridden one and I would probably die within a week if I did. I use my weight issues as a reason to not get one yet. |

"Dooo it, dooo it.
I am incredibly indecisive. Can spend hours online shopping, putting things in my basket and then not actually buying anything because I realise they are not a necessity 😂

I need someone to say I'm allowed so I feel better 
I get being indecisive, although I hope you know you're driving the website cart analysts insane 😂 |

I went to buy a new mitre saw and bench as it was on offer.
Looked at it, the box and all the necessary information, went for a coffee, came back, sold.
What a dopey cow I am !!
The lovely assistant trawled around all the other branches and found another, drove there and now I'm the proud owner of a new shiny saw and bench.
Didn't make the same mistake with a chainsaw, bought on the spot.
If anything isn't fixed down, it gets a piece of chainsaw action.
Girls and their toys eh...

Nope, that's not an issue. I keep telling myself when I lose x amount of weight. And it always shifts. They're probably going to stop making it before I'm truly happy with myself. |

Currently, not having a functioning bank card is stopping me.
Before that, it was because I spent payday starting to book up tickets for things over spooky season and don't want to leave myself short for the month.
Before that, nothing, I was going hog wild on buying up fun things for spooky season.
Next month is definitely new shoes month though 💜 |

Yes, I chickened out last minute. It's currently a perma-open tab. Has been for some time. 😁
Don't remind me! 35 will mean five years before I'm middle aged. Five years of being able to describe myself as the younger girlfriend/arm candy. Sad times. 🥺 |

You do seem the type to put everything into the spooky season so can imagine as soon as your bank car is functioning, it will be quite busy! I hope you manage to treat yourself to those new shoes ❤️ |

Ahhh that's annoying, especially with the temptation to spend it when you know it's for a certain thing you need. It's a tough conundrum 🤔 |

I was very recently browsing in the fragrance section for a new scent and I discovered the most amazing scent. It's for women though, and I only realised after trying it. It's definitely made me stop and think if I should buy it. That and the fact it's over €250.  |

I do that with almost everything I buy haha, I recently bought a pointing gun for jointing up our patios we install after putting off for 3 years due to it being 350 quid. Had I actually bought it 3 years ago it would have paid for itself several times over as it’s so fast lesson learned sometimes being a tight cunt isn’t good haha |

I will do. Wearing older shoes because I've been trying to be good and not keep buying new shoes is exactly how I lost my phone and now don't have a functioning bank card. This can not stand. New shoes soon.
But yes. Horror events at abandoned theme parks. Dressing up and getting rowdy to terrible Halloween music. Too much sugar and pumpkin spiced everything. I fucking love spooky season 💜 |

Joe Beeeeeeaaaaaannnnssssss!!
What is it you’re stalling over old thing?
I have two things. First, I want to rip out my bath and put in a huge walk in shower. Keep feeling I should pay off the mortgage first.
Second, I want a new wardrobe. I haven’t bought any new clothes I really like for a few years but I’m making myself get back in shape first.
Might do both next year. |

I would say the mortgage will be there for a while so why not treat yourself to those changes in your home? It makes sense about the clothes too. You could buy them now and they can motivate you for when you can wear them |

Excellent points! I love how you’ve spent the evening talking everyone into spending their dorrar but haven’t yet spent yours hahaha.
Could you maybe save half this month then buy them next month? That’ll give you a couple of weeks to consider how much you want them while lifting at the gym. Then, when you get them, you’ll know you need them and didn’t blow all the money in one pay packet. |

Buy the weightlifting shoes, very much worth it IMO, weight lifted is irrelevant.

I think the raised heel would be an absolute game changer and just been using small plates in the meantime which are a bit awkward.

Bit of advice Joe beans - don’t buy an odd number of shoes.
Watches: Ok
Shoes: Not ok |

Yeah, difference between using plates and shoes is huge. Adipower 2s I have, can pick them up for ~£80.
1 of the watches I don't wear, it's an investment piece. The others I just rotate. |

I’d really like an IQMS362 dustless masonry saw for work too been debating a while but 3 and a half grand is a considerable outlay for something that won’t offer any money making benefit other than comfort of use |

"I’m really tempted to get Invisalign treatment. I also want a new sofa and another holiday "
I've thought about getting Invisalign in the past but with the cost, I felt very vain if I did but seems like a great investment if it helps the confidence in your own smile |

"Yeah, difference between using plates and shoes is huge. Adipower 2s I have, can pick them up for ~£80.
1 of the watches I don't wear, it's an investment piece. The others I just rotate."
I've been looking at Nike Romaleos but the Adipowers seem like a good idea as it's more for comfort in lifts than doing serious powerlifting.
That makes sense, always good to match the watch with the outfit too |

I would normally say that comfort of use is important if you're using it often but do agree that 3 and a half grand for anything is rather steep |

I rarely have spare funds for big purchases, the washing machine went to scrap heap in the sky (well it's still in my kitchen) the other day, brakes need doing on pay day so the washing machine will have to wait another month, even if we do have spare cash left over as if we get one, we can't do other stuff in the month as want to do, so hand washing, using the machine at work and the launderette will do for now x |

I spend most months by peeling myself away from things I can afford, but over think the purchase so much that I walk away
My biggest frivolity is holidays
There was a time when I holidayed pretty much every month
Unfortunately, I can't take any at the moment, but I still put money in savings for when I can |
