Can't Do Anymore
Does anyone feel like nothing is done for the typical middle class working family? I don't think we could cut back anymore - we have tried every gadget, buying blankets, hot water bottles and applying layers. The only time we put the heating on is when we are trying to dry our clothes. We bought an airfryer for our meals…

M&S Christmas Advert
Am I alone in considering the M&S Christmas/Xmas (depending upon your view) incredibly crass and insulting to a significant proportion of the population who are struggling financially at this point in the year.

They do a daily deal usually £1.99 or £2.99 - these are a fair bit…
