never heard of this one, thanks watching it now looks good.......we could all give the same advice.....get paid for it....debts cleared!! perfect!

LOL, your £400 over your overdraft, why not spend 150 on some shelving?

doubtful Id dish out that advice, even if i was paid for it!

I know what you mean. Seems a bit daft. Someone tell him he can reclaim his bank charges!

aimme13

i was thinking that too.....makes you wonder why they didnt advise him to claim that back???

"there should be a law about this" he was saying, I was shouting at the telly THERE IS!!!

I watched little bits of it, in the adverts of House on Channel 5. So maybe I didn't get the full picture. I couldn't understand why Jay Hunt took him to the perfumerie to spend yet more money on a perfume when he already had £1500 of aftershave at home....seemed really crazy to me! Been watching Spendaholics since it started a while back...some of the advice is really good...others (like this example) I just cannot understand!

Jay was using the 150 aftershave thing is "how you can have fun on a budget" WHAT you can go to paris on a weekend deal for that, surely more fun!?! Or indeed pay off the debt- which surely is a better way of using £150.

INcidentally, there was no mention throughout of PAYING OFF THE DEBT with thesavings from the crazy spending lifestyle.

I didnt feel cos of this these sort of examples, the spending on the furniture.

And when he tipped those hard drives I was like :wall: someone could have used those via freecycle or somewhere else, or you could have sold them for a fiver a go, and chucked the proceeds onto the credit cards!!

I hope no one gets tips from this programme it was really BAD ADVICE.

Whens make me rich back on again? LOL

Thanks for the reminder Lucifer, always seem to forget the programmes on otherwise!

The thing I like about Spendaholics is that they delve deeper into the reasons behind the spending which makes it more interesting.

But have to agree with you all that they could've given much better advice last night.
