:rotfl::rotfl: I am a cheap date Pepe:D
I get suspicious of flowers
I hate expensive holidays- i would always be looking for a cheaper deal.
Sports cars i would struggle getting out of
Jewellery- i have everything i need and only wear wedding rings( if i don't chuck them at him) and a watch
Ah a cheap overdraft:D- bliss, better still no overdraft...that would be the equivalent of:

A bit of a bonus- when overall review has just been looked at-
with DD's no longer going out-DD's college bus pass,
and i negotiated with Sky i now have Sky + and three channels for £10 a monthall in. Is probably worth it for teenagers music alone.They have said again they will give me their contribution....... But i will still cancel if they don't.
Utilities down to £42 a month
Advantage gold- gone £12.95 a month
etc- i have shaved another £125 off a month.....
That's a further saving of £1500 a year....Those figures really make it worthwhile.Blackadder: Am I jumping the gun, Baldrick, or are the words 'I have a cunning plan' marching with ill-deserved confidence in the direction of this conversation?

Hi Bob, good to see you're still busting that debt and Mr Bob.
Hopefully seeing how much he is wasting and how much can be saved will steer him slightly more towards the path we want him to take.

I am thanks George- likewise i hope your shoulder is healing too. I bought some glucosamine-It maybe psychological, but it does seem to have eased off a lot. I can now drive with just a bit of twinging.
He was actually pretty pleased with the saving today and has seemed to have had a bit of an impact on him..i should have got the bank to ring before...:o:rotfl:
The bank was also complimentary of all the moneysaving techniques i have employed- i said it was all down to MSE.:rotfl:Blackadder: Am I jumping the gun, Baldrick, or are the words 'I have a cunning plan' marching with ill-deserved confidence in the direction of this conversation?
