  • Probably a good idea, jenjade. With something like a shed you might as well get a nice one as it's not something you buy everyday (hopefully not anyway!)

    Have you got anything to come from quidco next month Jen? Maybe you could put anything from there towards it?

  • I'm going to buy one of those mags tomorrow with my WH Smiths voucher so I can play the free daily game! Though I never won on it before, maybe it'll be easier to win on now that they require you to make a deposit.

    Go for it Jen.

    I'm not good at maths, but played with the spreadsheets and eventually understood it.
