  • Evening,

    Ahh I see MM :) So are you paying extra towards it? Or will they give you something for the mini?

    I wish there was a way of banning yourself from buying on ebay! I have been terrible recently, bought another cardigan tonight. I did get a lovely coat off ebay a few days ago though - it arrived today and is perfect, such a bargain (£7 + p&p and it looks brand new), so I'm pleased with that purchase. I'm gonna take some stuff back to New Look tomorrow, to make me feel better :S

    Evening everyone, I thought I'd pop my nose in before I watch TV in bed...

    I'm glad you're happy with your new car mm: :). It seems like we've all been spending today. My sister came back from uni for easter yeaterday, I went in to town with her earlier as I had a parcel to pick up which was probably a mistake. She's a compulsive shopper and spent about £150, I spent £20 on a top and I still feel guilty for that... Anyway, as it turns out it worked out quite well as paddypower gave me a free £10 bet. My dad told me to put it on whichever team has just beaten Man City so I won £18 :).
    Finally bought a home
    Starting mortgage £289,500 31.01.19 - Current outstanding £192,586.98/CENTER]
    Overpayments since 27.03.19: £52,407.47
  • Haha Jen, it's just too addictive. I started off wanting to treat myself... but it's so easy to get carried away once you start spending! I've spent at least £100 in the past week. I'm a binge-buyer :S

    Nikki I know what you mean about feeling guilty - my brother is terrible for spending every penny that he gets and he just doesn't seem to care, but I'm the total opposite. Well done on winning the bet anyway, at least it paid for your top :)

    Hi CL-I got 5495 for the mini and the micra was 6495 (its 3 years newer)
    Off to work in a minute-hope I can work out how to unlock it lol-its a 'intelligent key ' whotsit,all done with buttons and stuff and no actual key...could be fun as I forgot to pick up the manual for it...must get that soon....
