  • its amazing i thought i would be feeling down, as all my money saved for 'me' was being wasted on credit cards, but i look at like i put all that debt on those cards, if i have to wait longer to get the thing i was saving for then it will have to wait, only £514.66 to go :j

    no i am even more happier, i have got a bid on my laptop, its only £200 but it all counts, the lappy is worth £600 so lets hope bidding takes off :)

    Well done, you took some persuading, but once you beat the fear then you did it :)

    Good luck with the laptop, hope you get a decent price for it (im sure you will be using the proceeds to get rid of the ccs :) )
