1 week in and thought it would be nice to do a weekly update on my spending ban. I received a few promotional emails from brands this week which would usually make me want to go in and purchase but I was good, I just deleted them without reading, so not to tempt myself.
Me and my husband went shopping on Wednesday night as he was looking for a new shirt for a party. Mostly in men's shops I was ok until we had to pop into Boots to get toiletries for him ahhhhh! I managed to stay good and not even look at the makeup, phew!
I really needed to purchase a new mascara as my current was one starting to run dry so having a rummage through my stash found a maybelline one that I purchased last month that I forgot about, opps! So that saved me.
So I survived the first week, here's hoping week 2 is just as successful!
Well done you! Those promotional emails will be the death of my bank account... :(

DeleteI'm trying a spending ban at the moment too. I'm going to New York in December, but not going into Topshop and Urban Outfitters on the way to work is so hard.

DeleteI completely fail at not spending last week! :( I made a purchase from BH Cosmetics, Freemans Beauty, Stila & some drugstore makeup. But this week I'm going to be good!! I'm supposed to be saving up for Christmas shopping!
