The ultimate incentive worked! Now onto phase two

Oooh, he's really learning it seems! I'm glad you've got him on board now!
You'll have to let us know if he refuses to buy souvenirs because the money would be better spent paying off the CC!

That will be the real test! Because he does by some right rubbish sometimes - especially on holiday!

Sounds like my hubby....fridge magnets, wall plaques....aww come on I mean he wouldn't buy them at home!!:rotfl:

PS still tired from all those MS's yesterday, but will be happy when the £100+ rolls in, lets just hope I didn't mess up on any of them as I was sooooooo tired by the end of writing them all up!

How sad am i?!

As we all know i am prone to looking on rightmove every now and then. Theres a lovely 3 bed terrace on there and has been for quite a while and its now going up for auction :rotfl::rotfl:dont know why im bothered as we wont be even thinking about buying for another 2 or 3 years :rotfl:
Really should stop looking on rightmove!

Cinny I'm a bit confused...is it an actual house you're going to buy or is it a new build that you're putting a deposit on?

It's a house the family company is building, and I've bagsied it! The only down side is there is a chance they might decided to sell the land on once it's cleared with PP. But it's a vaair small chance.

That's so cute of your OH to be putting money away for when you move intogether! I think OH wants too, but he's still got debt to clear before that.

On the baby front, I've got everything planned, from names (Ralph and Noah) and cribs to where baby will spend their first christmas (morning at my parents and afternoon at OHs) I don't want kids until I'm 27 though. I'm turning into one of those people who has timescales!

Dinah - hope the cramps go away! Worst thing ever, you need hottie botties, hot chocolate and some really rubbish tv (but then that is my cure to everything)

Sounds like your OH is finally on board Flower! You'll have him turning down takeaways next. Nothing prepares you for that shocker! I had to sit down for a full 20 minutes when OH said 'it's cheaper to get the same from Asda'

I love a good nosey on rightmove. Me and Oh are holding off looking for houses for a couple of months as we are hoping to be able to geta bigger mortgage when he has been in job a little bit. Love looking though!

Cinny - I have timescales too, although they are going to be getting longer unless OH gets a move on hehe

I think the shock would be too much for me if he did that!!

He woke me when he came to bed lastnight, had a really sad look on his face and asked if we could have a chinese on friday night as he wouldnt be able to have one for at least 2 weeks while we're away :rotfl::rotfl:

ARGH!!!!! NIM is a ninny! Just set off for the bingo job, get halfway there, I ask him if all the money is in notes or coins and he looks sheepish and says he's forgot his wallet - and he borrowed my card too so that's in there as well! So one bingo job cancelled, GFK are gonna be mad at me!
