took my car to the garage today because the front tyre kept going down and it is not a slow punture it is the value but the 2 front tyres need replacing anyway as there is a lack of tread!! so about £30 a tyre x 2 = £60 ouch! could be worse though:j Proud mum to Jade age 10 years and Baby Ellie born Christmas Day:eek: with a broke heart Proven to be a little fighter and battling on with her heart condition :j

I know Jen.
Well the car has been paid for on credit card apart from the part from breakers yard so thats £210 to clear roughly, still got £155 left from hotel bill on card to pay too before they start charging interest.
Then looking at £1000 to save for spending money for trip. Can't really save anything for house until we get back now.Now a SAHM trying to earn some spare pennies each month0 -
