    hubby and me stopped using credit cards on 01/01/2009 and it was an eye opener just how much we used credit cards for, silly things like petrol but when you stop thats when you realise how much you don't have lol.
    this christmas was paid by extra hours in work and it felt soooo good when the january bills came in and they hadn't gone up :D
    always smile no matter how broken you are.
