    If you intend to save money,I would have a look at the regular saving's that most bank's/BS do,they earn more interst that just a normal saving's account,it's done by direct debit/standing order so save's you time once it's set up.

    Carry on reading this forum - it'll remind you how big money problems can get and give you loads of good advice if you do start to wander off the path.

    I use cash for everything and do not have a credit card!

    If I want something, I'll save, even if it means saving for a few months!!

    Take any old note book and write down everything you spend.
