    I hate "spending" my boots points - they take ages to build up then they are gone in seconds :eek:

    Yep: I have 1 Boots point :rotfl:and 2166 Nectar at the moment: we had 19 or 20,000 Nectar @ Christmas but it all went on seasonal things! And we emptied the brandy bottle of small change (and emptied a bottle of brandy as well:D) over Xmas.

    Nice to have but not essential. If I still worked in town, I'd probably have loads of Boots points and too much stuff.

    Nectar points kill me - they are worth so little compared to Boots, and so I always feel cheated when I use them (mostly for Xmas too)

    And I just love counting change ....it feels like free money to me!
    LBM Feb 2010 £62,700 Total Debt Jan 11 [STRIKE]£49,403.84[/STRIKE] £47,530.32.
    (CC/LOAN = [STRIKE]36,378.98[/STRIKE] 35668.47. O/D = [STRIKE]1255.32[/STRIKE] 1212.35/[STRIKE]1999.78[/STRIKE] 1934.52, BUS = [STRIKE]9769.76[/STRIKE] 8714.98)
    Challenge = Debt at 31/01/12 = £25k. 2011 Payments = £1,944.19/£24,403.84

    There is no point in negative thought, it takes up time and energy which could be used in a positive, happy way!

    Final bet of the day placed - and I will come out with a v. small profit, so that's all good - it has been a reasonable week generally, so to mess up in a small way is fine.

    No danger of mine being sorted either, beanie. I think perhaps I would worry if it were!!
