tiny spending... - May 19th 2010, 09:02 PM

I think I'm addicted or something. Like I'll see something really cheap, say £1, and think "ooh, that's cheap!" and just get it. I mean, thats £1 out of my £25 allowance, right? But then there's another little thing, then another, and then I realise I just spent £30! it's getting ridiculous. I've just closed my itunes account, and am just going to stop spending anything at all.


I thought about you for the rest of the day.
Catching my head turning to find you again.
I hated myself for it.

Oh gawd, I have the same problem. At the moment I have gone overdrawn 3 times in a row. Each pound leads up and up, and soon you have spent more than you have.

I have decided to keep a little notepad with me, and write down what I have in my bank/purse/wallet and what I spend. So as I know what I have got and dont have to rely on the bank all the time.

Exactly what it's like! I'll do that as well
