The 'I want it NOW!!' debt/savings thread - Part 3

yukkibear

I really want sports resort too. Ohh I might get that instead of wii active with my vouchers.

What annoys me is that when I wasn't in debt I was so tight like Jen and wouldn't spend unless I could get it with vouchers etc ie free, and now I owe money I want loads and have to restrain myself.

Well there is a nice list of things i would like and now i can't buy the house i am going to treat myself to the items!

I want a car- i think a vauxhall astra i am willing to spend about 2K
A new sofa i think it will cost about £400-£600
a dvd recorder to go with the new tv these seem to cost between £100-£150 i might save amazon vouchers as i am not in a hurry really
and a holiday abroad i think this will have to wait till april now though so i will keep my eyes open for a bargain!

Why couldn't you get a holiday hun?

jenjade

well i went thurday to loads of agents and they were all still really expensive even ones leaveing in less that 24 hours were over £800! There were bo £200 type bargains so i have decided if i have to spend that much i would rather have time to lose some weight and look forward to it! Also i can then choose from loads of places

Fair enough. I won't be going on holidays for yonks now though, hoping to go see friends that haven't seen for ages for a few long weekends now to cheer me up.

Have you had a chance to play sports yet Jen?

jenjade

the first holiday alone is horrid i recommend you leave it a while i find going on holiday on my own with dd really upsetting sometimes as there are couples and families everywhere! It makes me feel sad but i need holidays!

lilmissmup

Yeah tbh i don't wanna go on holiday until i am with someone again so will just go visit mates and have long weekends etc.

I hope the wii game is something that won't make you sad!

yeah i have had a little go i find the motion sensor remote thing annoying! the games seem good some are quite hard though! Archery is a bit tricky! Cycling is good fun.

i will play more tomorrow and let you know if it is worth getting

Morning all,

I have big decisions to make today!

To do the foundation degree or not????

I am not that bothered to be honest. if i did it would i be doing it for the wrong reasons?? Does it matter what reasons i do it for?
