What do refuse to give up to save money

[LowlandLucky]

After reading the thread about what we will go without to save money i was thinking about what i just couldn't do without. For me it is tea, i will cut down or buy a cheaper brand of most things, but not my tea, i will stick to my brand no matter what. What can't you give up ?

Nice bread from the bakers once a week.

Agree with you OP. Yorkshire all the way.

Taking the kids to fun places. We may take a pack lunch and skirt any gift shops but I love going places with them, it's the highlight of my week if we have an adventure planned.

Yorkshire Tea too (I stock up on the large boxes when they’re on offer).

Tumble drier I know it eats money but after years of having damp washing everywhere (in colder months) I do love it.

DH was as committed as you to Lurpack. It's so expensive though 🙈 I set up a blind taste test for him with Tesco Butterpack and Tescos own brand won so now we have that 🙌

hellcatspangle PG for me, used to love Yorkshire tea but i had a really bad throat infection a few years ago and the taste of the tea was awful, i just can't face YT anymore.

I would say Sacla pesto but I am even balking at that now.

Rooibus tea
Breakfast with my friends on a Friday morning
My allotment
The cat
My son ( he does cost a lot)

Heating, alcohol, going out with friends. I drink decaf tea and live abroad so that's expensive too.
