    Keep up the great work fella! :beer:
  • Before you replace the blender check that GF still wants one. Also check out Tesco for cheap electricals.

    Agree with BG. I think most kitchen electricals are only used once and then put at the back of the cupboard! e.g. smoothy maker....i know a few people who've bought one and it's now gathering dust!

    If she doesn't use it maybe she won't notice! LOL
    In debt no more!

    Thats me - got a spanking new Kenwood Smoothie Maker last christmas - has been used half a dozen times and now sits in the cupboard gathering dust, as it is such a pain to clean out! I'd double check she really wants it replacing, before you go and buy one - you never know your luck!
    Nice Shoes & Expensive Designer Handbags, are my downfall!

  • Wow James I have to say I'm very impressed with you spending just £20 a week! I have been agonising over what budget to allocate myself for a week, but I feel confident looking at how well you have done that I can actually survive on alot less than I first thought!

  • PS Have you looked at a Cahoot flexible loan? They charge 6.9% interest (I think) which might save you some cash....
