Hi,
Sorry if this thread isnt meant to be in this part but because im mostly in this bit all day i thought i would post here.
I would just like to say a big thank you to everyone. As ive saved so much money over this time i have been here, i havent been splashing out on no good things and wasting money like i normally do, ive actually sat and thought do i really need this item!?
And ive gone into saving maniac zone lol! Saving all my spare money and putting my bday money into my pot. I have allot of fun joining in all your challenges and its nice that we can all save together.
Just wanted to give a big thank you to everyone.

Hello :hello:
Great post! It is addictive, isn't it, this MSEing?!
I have had a few blips where I've spent money simply "because" but it's been on relatively minor stuff like M&S chocolate biscuits on special offer. (Always feel so guilty afterwards.) I have otherwise surprised myself that I can buy what I need rather than what I want! Compared to the me of a year ago, this is somewhat miraculous!
I love the challenges, finding the great deals like 2-for-1 meals out, and everyone's great advice and support.Debt Jan 2008: £45,566. *** June 2013: DEBT FREE! ***
Paid back just under £50,000 due to some interest added.
Dealt with my debt through a Step Change (CCCS) DMP.
