What items do you keep buying which you know you shouldn't?

[wichitalinemanswoman]

For me it's red lipstick and high heels. I think I look great in both and I really really don't

In no particular order,

Silk dresses
Wine
Scented candles
Sandals
Gin
Soaps
Scarves
Cat related stuff

Dr. Martens boots - wore them as a student, rediscovered them aged 40. So comfy. I have too many pairs, including my beautiful red velvet with ribbons. As a teacher, I've totally become 'eccentric' now, but I don't care and wear them regardless.

And sets of dice, especially if they're sparkly.

Wine! And I’m another one who goes mad at the charity shop. It’s 4 items for £1 & I have a roomful! Oh & jewellery, particularly rings. I have to stay off Facebook Marketplace because I’m like a magpie!

I need to get rid of shpock and eBay. I'm drawn the them like a moth to a flame despite deleting both apps. I even disabled my PayPal but I send the links to my sister and she pays for them.

My daughter has more toys than toys r us and smyths put together. I am also forever buying candles and wax melts, I could open my open branch of Yankee Candles and also have enough unworn clothes to open a clothing boutique.

Yarn.
Necklaces to wear or redesign.
Fabrics.
Craft items.
Skirts.
Paper & notebooks.
Plants.

I have enough but I can't stop.

£1 box of malteasers. Every week.

I really should stop this.

Cheese. We have a really lovely cheese shop near us & it’s on my way home from the gym. Thoroughly undo all my efforts on a regular basis, especially as they sell the most amazing bread to go with said cheese.

Take out coffee, I'm skint.

Clothes for ds, he has loads!

Chocolate and junk food they really dont suit me at all

Tyrell’s salt and vinegar crisps
Magnum classics
Cheese- so much cheese!
eBay- mainly tops and bags

Fizzy water. It's an indefensible waste of resources and tap water is fine, but I just love it.

Mine is a bit odd,, but I am always buying fresh salmon, kale,spinach,and rocket and lemons and beetroot, I do eat it all though,no waste. I am not some health freak at all, I just have this addiction to these things at the moment.

Nutella and Starbucks

Giant bags of tortilla chips

Postmissposte sparkling water is amazing, I feel so guilty about the plastic though. I keep scouting around for a soda stream to ease my guilts

Shower gel

Second hand books and ankle boots. The books I can afford, but the boots, not really.

Lipstick, duvet sets, crockery and kitchen stuff, pretty notebooks, Kindle books, hair products (thick, wavy hair - always looking for the holy grail of curl products), shoes......

Sainsbury’s small strawberry tart. I have been known not to wait till I get home to eat it. 🐷

yarn. because there aren't enough hours in the day/my lifetime to knit that much and £20+ per skein really adds up. my yarn stash is my most considerable asset

Shoes
