    Thanks sarah :A

    The title is ironic obviously - life IS shoes :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
    Sometimes it's hard to walk in a single woman's shoes - that's why we need really special ones!

    Have just opened an account for £365 in 365 days that I can transfer into every day. Would be fab if I can stick to this and have a treat next Christmas - it can't be that hard to cut back by £1 a day :confused:

    Wish I could open an account to do that, when I tried to open my last savings account I had to get an appointment with a financial adviser, very daft! Might do the same with a sealed pot though!

    Just opened mine on online banking - I bank with Lloyds, and it's there ready to use :confused:

    Thanks - I'm hoping to save the £1 (at least :o) a day I spend on chocolate and other food 'treats' - and help my weightloss too :D

  • More to life than shoes????? Don't say that!! Half my credit card debt is in my wardrobe.

    (Scary actually, I calculated in the last 6 months I've spent more that $1300 on shoes... lovely shoes, but I need a boot up the backside for putting them on cards!!!)

    Happy New Years!!! :D
