SAVE don't SPEND #8

Happy Monday guys! I can't believe how fast February went and we are now in merry old March! March is one of my favourite months of the whole year, as it's still nice and cold and wintery but the days get much longer and the sun comes out a little - both things which boost my mood immensely! Despite this, I still managed to break my spending ban AGAIN last week, and decided to restart today instead of keeping breaking it... If you follow me on Twitter you'll know I went to Milton Keynes to visit some Uni friends at the weekend and we did a little shopping, so I really have fallen off the wagon again but I solemnly swear this will be it at least for a month..

EEK well I've certainly not done so good this week, have I? I knew from the start that this would be an expensive week as I had to buy presents for a few colleagues at work because I'm moving departments, which adds up. I also knew that a bit of shopping would be done in MK on Saturday, but I did restrict myself and only purchased 2 dresses and 2 cardigans, - all for work and totaling a mere £70... Nandos twice in one week probably wasn't the best idea, along with the total disrespect shown to my spending ban whilst in TK Maxx  and Superdrug  on Wednesday. Never mind though, today is a new day and it's a new week, I'm determined to get back on track and down to £80 per week and restart my spending ban. Wish me luck!

Are you on a spending ban? How are you getting on? I hope you're doing better than me!
