    I know i've been being really good! i'm thinking it wmight be worth working every weekend all day (8 till 4) for a couple of months will be over £700 per month extra, then i can pay off one of my credit cards :) it wouldnt be to difficult because i only work evenings in the week so have all day off, its deffo worth considering??

    I dont want much for christmas, cant really think of much i want really, would like some new perfume, the christina agulera one is lovely! other than that i would like to book a holiday :)

    thats a good idea!

    Im trying to find some more information about this cling film type stuff which apparently you stick against your single glazed windows, which we will have in the new place.... any ideas anyone? LOL
    That was one thing I found mentionned which we could use to help lower our costs in the new place....

    We've got a throw which we can use on our bed.
    Might look at getting another one for our sofa.... but cheaply!
    I've got one hot water bottle already, but might get one for DH's side of the bed, or see what electic blankets retail for these days....

    not a clue, i know that company send samples, think you cut it to the size of the window and put the hairdryer on it to seal it lol! I could be totally wrong tho! And apparently they can cause bad condensation for some reason. there was a thread on here about it http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=1157495
