    No pad for me today as our mattress finally gave up the ghost and we've had to buy a new one. We've been meaning to get a new one for two years now but just not got around to it. The last night hubby complained of sharp needles in his back and when we looked the springs have come through. We've turned it over for now but had to order a new one. Also had to use CC as we've not got that much money in ready cash - we did get a good deal mattress was £349 and we got it for £170. Had to get a specific mattress as I have a bad back and need a certain type. :eek:

    Ah, well. Hopefully we'll pay it off in the next few months. Just feels like all my PADs mean nothing now. :rolleyes:

    PAD means that this is less disasterous than it would have been.

    Maybe you could PAD a little into an account until you have a small "slush fund"?
