8 Of The Top Things People Will Try To Give Up For Lent In 2016

So we're one week into possibly the hardest time of the year for some; Lent. Every year people tell themselves they will give something up, be it sweets, coffee or even Social Media. But how many of you can say you've successfully lasted the entire 40 days? We'd be impressed if you have!

Giving up something you enjoy in life is tough, but every year brings the same opportunity to attempt it. The most popular items you lot are giving up this year are shown below, giving us insight into what you consider a luxury.
