    Don't forget to look on freecycle for cookers, and yes even taps! I regularly see in my area things like that. Or if you live in London, have a look on gumtree.com as they have a free section there too.

    Well done on getting debt free

    thanks guys, i am sat here in almost disbelief that i have actually done it! i dont think the penny will drop untill next payday when i can really see my hardearned money is there and its mine and it isnt earmarked for a credit card :j i can start to relax and chill out a bit, i never thought i would reach this point not in my wildest dreams it was always a speck of light at the end of a very long tunnel... well i reached the end and now im stood in the beautiful warm sunshine instead of the dark miserable depths my debt has reduced me to in the past.
    stick at it you guys, you can do it, live within your means and budget budget budget, im gonna take what i have learnt and use it well in the best possible mse way:j
    proper prior planning prevents !!!!!! poor performance! :p
