Hi all, Sick of not having much money and it is depressing watching other people walk around with loads of shopping bags. Does everyone else feel like that?

Probably a lot of people are going to be very unhappy in January when they have to pay for all those bags of shopping. If it helps -imagine them as bags of debt, getting heavier and heavier, they'll still feel the weight of debt when the bags are empty.

You , on the other hand can bask in the knowledge that your debt weight is getting lghter

Now look at the tremendous effort all of you are putting into getting debt free.

I like it mammy CAFC! I have had a good day in that at times I've felt utterly crap today and not gone shopping! Achievement or what (for a recovering shopaholic) so quite pleased....

Heavy shopping bags are bad for your back but even worse for your purse

Yep a real live one!:rotfl:

Not much to report today from me.... spent money :rolleyes: but Dh and I have agreed to make each other stockings for christmas with little things of fun and happiness, so I got him some cheap books 3 for £5 in the works and some chocolate coins and some sweeties, so spent about £8 from my budget for that.
Figured I would get him books as we might be moving out to a village soon so he'll need entertaining, and wont be able to just pop to asda for a cheap DVD. Which really is a good thing:rotfl:

Not much else to report from me, just getting ready to do some dooyoo reviews.
