Giving something up for lent is not just about your Piety. It is meant to be a hardship. The money you would normally spend on your vice is to be given to the poor not to line your pockets.

Maybe because, as a designer, my very income is based directly on my client's willingness to spent their money on things which aren't essential. and I wonder who's livelyhood is based upon 'my' spending habits?

I'm always tempted to say something flip like "olives in the martini" or "sloth and indifference." I will try and curb all frivolous spending and my all-too-frequent impatience.
