  • it's strange, i was so used to seeing my balances goin down and planning what was gonna go where, i don't really know what to do now???? think my next goal will be to max out this years ISA allowance as i've only used about £750 of the £3600 lol. That should give me about £5K by by April, nice 5% deposit for a little place of my own :D

    Once a money saver always a money saver lol. It's weird you spend so long training your brain to be all about paying off debt and spending as little as possible on "luxuries" that the thought of my free GRANDE (might as well get a big one when it's on them lol) hazelnut skinny latte actually got me all excited lol, oooooooo and on a nero's loyalty update thing, they now give you a stamp if you buy the paper too, so if you only really need to buy 5x coffees £15 + 5x papers £2.50 = £17.50 to get your free coffee instead of 10x coffees @ £30!!!!! see it's just built in to my brain now lol i just can't help myself :D
