Top 10 things I would never spend my money on.

10. A fake set of nails…why would I pay someone to make me look tacky?
9. A huge SUV…I’ll stick to my 35mpg thank you very much.
8. Any thing from the V.S. PINK collection, Writing across your bum was so 2002.
7. Jewelry from Tiffany & Co. I will however still accept gifts from there.
6. Ringback tones. If you like your friends don’t make them listen to “my humps” when they call.
5. A Pussy Cat Dolls Cd…because im not in highschool wearing Baby Phat jeans
4. A subscription to Cosmo. I like fashion, not reading about how to please your man.
3. Crocs..because I’m not a 40 year old house wife trying desperately to be hip.
2. Diet pills…because I know how to get off my couch.
1. Coach Bags…I will save those for the girls with no personal style.

What 10 things would you never spend money on?

Check out these sites and products to help take part. Will you really want that Anya Hindmarch bag once every girl on your block has it anyway?
