OMG - couldn't post yesterday - was too scared too! I think I've made the right decision but I'm nervous of your reactions!!! the laptop I ended up buying from the catalogue - by the time I'd worked in the discount / quidco cashback it was the same price as Amazon, except I get 12 months 0% interest to pay for it .... and I could really do with having extra pennies in the account before going on next weeks hols!

I know it was no adding anything - this is how I got into this mess in the first place, my only defence is it hasn't cost me anymore than it would have to have bought it outright, but I'd have been a bit vulnerable abroad with no back-up cash (not taking CC's).

Sorry targets :(:(

I think I pressed the wrong button!

What button?

As long as you use the laptop a lot and promise to pay it all off at the end of 12 months I won't tell you off

We all are allowed a treat from time to time!

Thanks as always for your support - and not being too harsh on me! Probably harder on myself!

This morning, when adjusting figures on Page 1 I pressed quote instead of Edit, and ended up in a right pickle, so then had to delete the whole thing and start again! Was doing it from work, although officially hadn't started for the day - albeit had already done about 2 hours work by that time!!!! Maybe it was the laptop nerves still playing on me!

Laptop is for DD anyway - no pleasure for me (other than not being shoved off mine)

Officially 7 sleeps until hols ... oh, I cannot wait! Sunshine here we come!!!
