Went in town the dea to get my mum's mothers day present(s) and went into HMV, big sale on , loads of dvds for sale. Singles, box sets. Plenty I want and ones I wouldn't mind.
My mates been egging me inot watching harry pooter films, the early ones are on slae now. Do I give in??
Theres still somce comis I wouldn't mind.
3 full priced PS2 games I want.
I wouldn't mind a new phone, a one with a louder ing o it and a bit smaller.
i need colthes, my black jeans have atear in the arse and my cords things are too short now.
I got rent next week and top up, mothersday lunch on sunday.
Always the same, I get money coming in and then it goes out again coz I have to buy stuff.
How will I ever save???

Discipline!
Not spend
I have troubles not spending:(
Hence store cards being maxed out!
shirly store cards'll just be making you spend more in the long run...?
Just save your money and download everything! (legally, through american itunes and the like, of course)
I already download songs, I only have dial up so can't download dvds. I download video clips but thats it.
saw a hoodie on sal eat my uni today, a hoodie with the uni name which I wouldn't mind so thats another thing I could buy.
!
Alright Jamie
Your phone - does it call and text people? Then it's fine for now. Clothes - well that can't be helped, but just go to somewhere like Burtons or Next in the sale and you'll get things for cheap. You're at uni. Noone cares how you dress.
Like I said, put your money somewhere you can't get at it, and you won't bother with those impulse buys you don't need. If it's not important enough for you to go into the bank and get the money out in advance, then you don't need it.
I can get a £5 off any of those games at HMV with a card. Still its £25 though. I was playing Fantastic four but it buggered up and won't work now.
I do still have 2 dvds I haven't watched yet. The Grudge and Star Wras 3, plus I never got round to watchign all my ANgel s4 dvds coz it came on tv. And I wanna watch Cerlks an dJ&SBSB again.
But I did say to myself I'd get Sin City when it came on sale. 9 songs looks interesting. Star Wars orginal Trilogy cheap, Buffy season 2 cheap. Training day £2.99! Clone Wars dvd's in sale now, and I only ever saw a couple of episodes of that.
Money is in my bank account, I can't bae arsed with differen kinds and such.
My mate has the harry potter dvds but he will never lend me them.
I am just indecisve now. I mean th emoney is there but I feel bad for spending it and then things all come together at same time and such.
It's not. Did you not read the reviews?
As you'll only want it for the filth, you can get better porn on TheHun.
But you don't need any of those things.
You spend within your budget. No money = no fun. I'm waiting to get paid and, guess what, I'm not going down the pub till I do.
anyway, I read and heard 9 songs was a good film. Its only £6.99 in the sale, I wouldnt have bough it full price. Still, it is interesting, real sex in a mainstream film. Be interesting to see how they do it. Plus its a love story, I am a sucker for those.
I have money coming in, I have bit f JSA form before I singed off, 2 weeks of temp money, and next week I shuld get paid for the wokr I have done this month at this new job.
I just have a guilt complex of buying things.
Kermit - You have a loving wife to go home to. You don't need to go to the pub, whether you have been paid or not.
its is crap though I guess.
But it passes the time.
Have a look at thesite's article on managing a budget if you haven't already. Splashing out on what may seem like even the smallest of treats can add up to a lot of cash if you don't keep an eye on your spending.
Well the sex does intrigue me. Makes me wonder if it is true if sex will be in mainstream filsm more as the porn industry claims, though with no ude clauses then maybe not.
yeah that young adam is suppsed to be strong but it looks like a miserable film. Don't know much about the others.
I do like th elove story though and 9 songs is supposed to have that.
I saw a bit of Crash. I didn't seem too explicit and was quite strange!
As for Crash, no it's not that explicit really. It's more violent though. It's about a group of people that get off on car crashes essentially. Kinda wierd idea for a film.
God, we're gonna get the topic moved again.
ha, wish i took this attitude myself!!
Aye, I don't know tho. I have a massive tin of pennies that I haven't even bothered to take to the bank!
Yup bluewisedom, I am right, and even kermit knows it
yeah luc, I just feel bad about buying stuff sometimes, specially then there is soo much of it lol.
Yeah I'm with, I agree. Though I have heard plenty of directors talk on the subject, justify a cumsho in a mainstream film so who knows and itf its picked up as a marketing tool, maybe the actresses and actors will have to do it.
well I was gonna say Stupid I agree with you or I agree with youy stupid but I thought you might think Iwas dissing you
It's not illegal, and its better quality than 9 songs. As the Independent put it, it's a poor film, and a worse porno film. The actress apparently has "lovely labia" though.
It's important to treat yourself when you're working, otherwise there's no motivastion to go.
But if you're spending every penny you're not going to save.
What's my marital status got to do with anything
