Just to let you all know I used to be an avid viewer of this board but today have moved to the "Savings and Investment "board as am now debt free and have a few pounds savings, so am looking for tips and ideas there. I NEVER thought I'd get there, or form a regular savings habit as I thought I had too little ,always. How wrong I was! a £ or2 here and there all helps as well as bigger sums. So people, take heart, think small, we'll get there in the end:j:beer::smileyhea:starmod::starmod::starmod:
