    hi there
    I thankfully am not in that position now but I have been in the past. Its easy getting into debt and there is too much easy credit available to people.
    I was thinking about you yesterday when I bent down to pick up what I thought was 2p...it was actually a very dirty 10p!!! So I am now smitten. Have my eyes on the ground!!
    Its not easy to stay away from the traps set by credit card companies and stores trying to get us to take their grubby wee cards...have to keep going on the straight and narrow.
    All the best with your journey you have done superbly as have all others on this thread You all deserve praise.

    well done

    It was good but I spent too much! Now going to Primark to get some fleeces for holiday.

    Budget is shot, I'm currently spending OH's rent, which I haven't mentioned to him!

    I know how hard it is this time of year my budget is hanging on by a thread, I have just realised i have missed a gift for a very dear friend. I knew i had to go and get it but with the snow i completely forgot, I just cant face the crowds today maybe i will have a look online instead.

    my budget is shot as well, and unfortunately it will carry through to next month as well because it's on the CC and i pay it off each month.

    poor Mr Postie, i'm sure if he remembers at all he won't give you too much grief about it lol
