I have been overspending on small things like magazines, treat food and charity shop clothes. I already don't spend big amounts-our budget is tight because we've had lots of big expenses in the last couple of years. But I need to knock the little drips of spending on the head too-we are having a very right month.
When I say no spend, I mean a bare minimum of treats that the dc usually have (sweets after swimming, swimming itself and toddler group for dd2) but no clothes for anyone, frugal food shopping and absolutely cold turkey on unnecessary things for me.
Does anyone want to join in? For me it will be tough not because I need things but because I'm very much an emotional spender.
