DFW but I just wont give up....

....my ironing lady. I detest ironing so much that I'd give up anything before I pay to get it done for me. It costs me £10 per 30 items (an item can be as small as a pillowcase or as big as a quilt cover) which I think is pretty good. I'm saving as much as I can everywhere else - what could others just not ever, ever give up?

Obviously I should've said " I'd give up anything before I stop paying to get my ironing done'.!!

I find ironing quite therapeutic. I think it helps calm my obsessive compulsive disorder lol0

I detest ironing. I get all hot and bothered! But, I save it all for a Sunday night when I'm normally in such a foul mood about having to go to work the next day that the ironing doesn't make much of an impact to my overall demeanour. I couldn't give up potatoes but fortunately they're quite cheap!Debt Free Nerd No. 89, LBM: April 2006, Debt at highest (Sept 05): £40,939.96

I really hated ironing until my mum bought me a new iron (manager's special in Sainsburys £15, reduced from £35)...
Now i find it's much easier.. think my old iron must have been dodgy not enough steam..
Maybe if you got a better iron it would help..
I used to get my car valet' and find now that i could never do that, would so grudge it!Debt at Highest: - £32'000
