Am In Need of Some Serious Help

I am now deliberately leaving my purse behind when I go to the Gym at lunchtime (be impressed with the "Gym" bit) - why? - the Sales are still on - well to be precise all the dross and crap that no one wants and most of the stuff from the summer sales that didn't sell - all marked down to 70% - bargains - or are they??

This week has seen me going into TK Maxx for a new "gym" top and coming out with one black top, one purple hoodie and a black jacket with a white flower on it - WHY??

Going into New Look and buying two jumpers (identical except in colour) for £3.00 each because they were £3.00 each - WHY??

Searching in Jigsaw for that elusive bargain just because its the Jigsaw Sale and coming away with a straw bag (which actually was a bargain from £60 to £19) - WHY??

And then .........the finale ......... going into All Saints yesterday on my way back from the Gym (of course no purse) seeing an absolute snip of a "cardigan" reduced from £75 to £21 which I just "needed" (not caring that it was last summers stock) rushing back to get my purse rushing back to buy it and then ..........and then.......... (drum roll) having to justify to a 19 year old drop dead gorgeous sales assistant (the type you get in All Saints) who had to point out that the "bargain" had a hole in it! What did I do? I told him to stop pocking his finger in it as it would make the hole bigger and that I still wanted it!

Crazy or what.

I then decided that I would sew the hole. It didn't work. I then decided that I would put clear nail varnish on it to stop the hole from becoming cavenous. It didn't work.

you could always try something to keep your mind off the shops ... like scrabble.

New Look has tops for £3.00?! What a bargain!

Okay... maybe we both have an addiction...

Well done on 2 things:

1. the gym
2. recognising that you have a problem! haha

nah, you are just a girl and like me i can't steer clear, although i am having to at the moment, i do think it was a mistake buying a top with a hole in! EEK!

I would just save the money you would end up spending on sales and when all the gorgeous spring stuff comes out, splash out on a top that you would adore! Not a top that is £3 and will probably only wear for bed (yes talking from experience! i am a recovering shopaholic!) haha
