NO SPEND WEEK!!!!
This week I'm going to really really try not to spend any money (ok Claire you can stop laughing) people who know me will know how easy I find it, but I have decided I do not NEED anything, no fabric no ribbon no flowery plates and I certainly don't need another button for as long as I live.
I will obviously still need to go food shopping but apart from that nothing else, I might be able to focus on the stuff I actually own rather than looking for new goodies.
At the moment I have so much fabric I think I could quilt most of England so I really can't buy anymore!!!! I might post a photo this week of all my fabric just to shame myself, then again maybe not you might just think I'm a greedy cow, yes Claire I know you already think that but you are steadily catching up.
So let's see how I get on shall we, I might even post every day OMG that will be strange won't it feel free to join me if you wish.
Speak soon

Good luck, after reading everyone's post I don't anyone needs any more!
I've been keeping a money diary for the last 6 months so i can keep an eye on where my money goes.... crap!!!
I've tried hard this week not to spend very much & it worked. I treated myself to CS finds but then had food from the cupboard & freezer to make up for it. :)
Hello Cate!
It's nice to meet you!
Im sorry if I have not added you as a friend on Facebook yet, but I didn't know who you were!
Glad I've just found your blog and recognized your picture!
Have a good week!
You could have said older sister instead of big ;-)
Would join you but too late, mother made me place an order on Hancocks yesterday afternoon and I would break it Thursday as a book comes out then which I will have to buy.
Would 3 days count?
Claire
Good luck with the no spend week!
Can't wait to hear how you got on!
Glad you're a Halloween fan like me, we did a Halloween themed baby shower for my SIL last year so brought loads of goodies from TK Maxx which I hope to pull out again this year.

Hi Kate,
I think I very much need a no spend week... There is so much stuff here already that needs to have the most made of it before I buy anymore... But I just can't help myself!
Although, I do think that I haven't actually bought anything so far this week... but it is only tuesday lol

Oh deary me, I certainly need a no spend week!!!!!! You are right, it's so hard to go out and see such lovely things and think you deserve a little treat! Living in a house with 4 males I tell myself i'm allowed to have little girly treats, a bud vase here, a throw there.....I have to be good now and realise my house just is not big enough anymore! Laughing! x
