    *** I keep seeing that someone in debt shoudnt have an iPhone, well im going to justify mine!
    Its PAYG and I had it as a Christmas gift (and put a little bit towards it by selling my old phone)
    The apps I use on it are amazing for keeping tabs on my accounts, expenses and I even have a brilliant snowball one.
    It is my ipod, camera, Mp4 player,internet access and phone all rolled into one
    I think of it as my only luxury! and I REALLY couldnt go back to being without it

    I heart my iPhone xxx

    Woo hoo on the refund :T

    Can I just ask how much you pay for your PAYG iPhone? I only ever have a PAYG phone (I spent a whole £30 on it last year!) but I keep seeing these flashy iPhones about and thinking - ooooooh :) - but if it's going to cost me loads to use the net etc. then I wouldn't get one.

  • hi mendmyways and well done on the big payout from your loan insurance! I enjoyed reading your diary, you sound like you have got your head screwed on about your debt and you will get it sorted out. The week in France sounds lovely and hurrah for your OH buying the vodka.
  • OMG! A week in a caravan with your OH and 3 boys - I know that feeling of trepidation well. But, at least you'll be in la belle France....

    Best of British though

    Four more £'s for the £2 saving pot today... giving me a very nice £50 in total so far. I think my target for christmas is quite achievable at this rate!
