"toys and books for my little one"
they're essentials in my eyes
all part of ur little 'uns development

"M&S ready meals (when my other half is away).....when I have a beautifuly equipped kitchen to cook in.
Lazy Bitch Syndrome"
I have to confess to popping into M&S Simply Food yesterday to get 'something for dinner' on the way back from a weekend away.
Came out having spent £40 (but at least I have some nice lunches lined up this week ) |

"Ermmmmmm clothes,make up (I spend £50 a month on makeup) and bags and I got a thing about shoes at the moment.. "
i remember having a blazing row with a girl about make up. i had just started seeing her and she lost (or maybe had stolen) her make up bag.
i shrugged it off with a 'well it's only make up, you can replace it'
she then told me that the value of the 'its only make up' was probably about £2,000 - £3,000
i then didn't help matters by saying that was a stupid amount to spend on make up at which point i was virtually savaged lol
at that point, i learned 1 valuable lesson
NEVER come between a lady and her lotions and potions |

"And Creed aftershave...
Not cheap but amazing smell.
"
it is very expensive i agree
the 2 or 3 i've tried are nice but there is 1 that smells like the inside of an asian grocery shop
as a nice a smell as it is in the shop, it's not the best advert to go out smelling like you've just jumped in n out of the spice bags |

yup she was the same - chanel, dior, ysl, estee lauder, clinique
not to mention the money she used to spend on the magazines that promoted them and where she got ideas for her next purchase from
weekends in bed were usually, wake at 7, have an early morning session then i would be despatched to tesco for maple pecan danishes, tropicana juice and about £20's worth of papers and magazines that she would then spread over the bed
never mind, at least i got some peace before the afternoon shopping trip to buy yet more make up
at least i'm not cynical (much) lol |

I could live without my magazine subscription however I do pay for it with Tesco points so that's not too bad.
I could use supermarket own shower gels and bath stuff but I don't, I use Molton Brown.
I could spend less on perfume but I'd rather spend more on the scents that I love.
I could spend less on handbags however I adore Tula and Radley (and their quality) so I will continue to have what I like.
I could spend less on toilet roll however I prefer the quality of a more expensive brand (and it seems to last longer) so I don't compromise on that.
I could live without Sky TV however our terrestrial reception is diabolical here so I'd rather not.
I could live without my uneconomical car however in bad snow I can't leave my house.
That's just from the top of my head, there's probably loads more. |

"boots and underwear "
my sister has a major shoe addiction
it'd got to the point where she find the ones in the shop she likes and then orders them online to be delivered to my house.
that way they can be sneaked in at leisure whilst hubby is out at football |

Love it!
And anyway,if we work hard, why not - my flash, girly motor definitely isn't a necessity, but I wanted it, so I got it - couldn't have if I didn't work hard though |

That's it. I don't smoke and I don't drink so why shouldn't I spend a little more on other things that I like? |

Oh and my health-grill. I could have bought 4 or 5 cheaper ones for the price of the one I have however, having bought 4 or 5 cheaper ones before, there's no contest.
I'm getting to the stage where I'm refusing to compromise on quality and hate throwing good money after bad.

Ive never asked or expected jay to pay for anything he is old fashioned and would never expect a woman to pay for a meal or anything. When it comes to holidays he usually books them as surprises |

They are very efficient but i like the feeling of creative abandon one gets when coating an object in gloopy glue then pouring glitter over it and seeing what sticks! |
