Even if I feel flush I will not buy.....

[enoughofthenonsense]

Following on from the event thread here about no compromises

I will not buy even if I feel loaded I'm not really

Heinz beans
Ketchup
Easter/ Christmas gimmick choc
Posh oats
Sugary cereals
Fizzy pop
White bread
Flowers ( they're cut so already 💀)
Most things from a big brand( I buy mostly own brand)

Amongst others.
I'm also a clean and tidy miserable shite person who does not like breakfast in bed because I don't want crumbs and food in the bedroom.

Anybody care to join in? NC because I'm sure I'll be flamed or somebody will be offended.

Not quite the same, but I think no matter how much money you have, personalised numberplate s are a pointless extravagance. Nobody needs one and IMO if you've got enough money to throw away on them, you should donate the cost of them to charity instead.

A brand new car, the depreciation is ridiculous.

Even if I won euromillions I wouldn't buy:

Expensive shoes
Designer handbags
Flashy jewellery
Expensive watches

What's wrong with flowers?

Going to need some popcorn for this one.

To answer the questions, clothes with obvious branding or names emblazoned across. It looks awful.

I never buy really expensive alcohol, one of my friends will order champagne at well over £100 a bottle when we go out & I don’t enjoy it as much as my £7 aldi Prosecco to me, nothing you drink can be good enough to justify that kind of cost! I’m sure even winning millions on the lottery would not change my views

Quilted loo roll, too many horror stories about plumbing blockages with it and the recycled stuff is fine.

Cards from Clinton’s! Daylight robbery.
Krispy kremes
Kids designer shoes
Face serum/acids - complete fad

I buy pretty much everything mentioned is far

Oohh.

Foie gras

Employ a cleaner
(simply because I'm incapable of keeping my home tidy enough to let a stranger in without being embarrassed - I'm in awe of people who keep a tidy home and can just have visitors whenever)

Bikini waxing

There are currently 7 vases of flowers in my home 😀

Cashmere. Even M&S cashmere. I just don't get it. Who needs clothes that are meant to be worn as day to day outerwear that need a special wash and careful storage? Who has the time?

Bikini waxing

2nded. Fuck that for a lark. Even if I was going on holiday and wanted a tidy up I'd just buy a Gillette.

I buy most of the stuff mentioned
Apart from sugary cereal, foie gras and quilted loo roll!
I would never pay money for personalised plates either, though dp has a business related one for his work van. They look so tacky!!

Caviar 🤮
Skiing holiday, skis ski equipment or anything at all to do with skiing.
The Sun (actually that’s obviously nothing to do with money just wont buy the scum)
Any type of ‘flavoured’ alcohol - so no rhubarb gin, no cheery vodka
Anything with obvious designed logos, just think they look tacky.

Or a low sling sports car - there’s so many potholes and speed bumps round here I wouldn’t be able to drive it for more than 30 seconds without getting a bump or scrape

Fake tan- spray, cream or 'subtle' moisturiser- they all look bright orange on super pale people like me.

@ElspethFlashman i have cashmere socks for keeping my feet cosy when i get to sit on my arse, I can highly recommend them. But I agree with cashmere outerwear. Unless you were mega ultra rich and just outsourced all your laundry I suppose.

For me - a large car. I have a small car which can squeeze into small parking spaces. Couldn't imagine parking a range rover at my local supermarket.

Lip filler
Designer dog breed
Sports car
A Pool

I buy everything on your list op

I agree with plain t shirts with designer logos too. It just screams 'look at what I've wasted my money on'.

Branded cleaning products. Lidl own brand does the job, so spending more is a complete waste of money.

Designer branded clothing. I once saw a plain white t-shirt with a Givenchy logo in Selfridges. It was £370. However rich I was, there is no way I would ever consider spending anything like that much on a t-shirt.

1st class on a flight

I hate flying so it would be a total waste.

Elspeth I put my cashmere in the washing machine on wool setting and keep it in the wardrobe like my other stuff. Every time I put a cashmere cardi on it feels like a hug and who couldn't do with one of those on a daily basis? 😁
I wear one most days from September to June.
Even if I won the lottery I wouldn't pay more than a couple of hundred pounds for a bag though.

Expensive jewelry. I just don't see the point.

Agree with most of these apart from flowers, love having the odd bunch in the window to brighten up the place, fake flowers just aren't the same
