    Hi Lost2,

    That's a great idea, how about "Bargains for Bankrupts"?

    Rich

    Or perhaps a `Bog Roll Bargains For Bankrupts`thread :rotfl::rotfl:.......not sure how we ended up talking about toilet rolls either ???

    ..btw Lost2 I bought those from Instore(Poundstretcher) too !!:o:o:D

    I'm thinking I need to invest on my next trip to Makro! I'll advertise my "Bog Roll Bargains for Bankrupts" on here. Unfortunately I'll only accept cash...!

    ....nearly BR when.....I worry every time I use my bank card in case it will be deemed to be frivolous & I will get the 3rd degree from some nasty OR for spending £1.26 on Lurpack when I should have bought value spread at 29p.....started to pay for everything cash so will not be asked why I put £10 of petrol in every 2 days or why I spent £10 in Primark.

    I get paranoid sometimes...can`t you tell!!! :o:o

    We should start a thread... You know when you are a discharged Bankrupt when...

    You can put your spending back on the debit card and not be afraid the OR will challenge it.

    :j :j
