    Hi Bells :)

    Yep thats right, they are getting exclusivity on the Palm Pre so I expect they will make their money out of that instead. I dont mind as 02 is the only company I can get a signal with where I live.

    ps-look at my car!!!!!

    Hi Bells :)

    Hi lilmiss - I think the sensible (although not fun!) thing to do is to hang on then, i cant cancel my t-mobile contract so will hang on until it would actually work for me...;)

    Welcome to the board Bells, I'm trying to live on £30 a week til I'm out of non student loan debt so I know it's hard, but it will be worth it when you get rid of the cc. I hope everyone else is oki :)

    hi all! I am back for camping

    I had a very very very lovely time!

    Welcome to the board Bells! I would have been a good one to advice you but i just bought a TV! lol It is set up now and i love it.

    I saved amazon voucher towards the tv so paid £150 cash £150 free vouchers from dooyoo and bingoport

    Bells- have you though of doing bingoport of something to save vouchers towards an iphone? Just an idea. i would stick with the debt busting if i was you hun you are doing so well stay focused and get rid of that interest!!
