    2 brand new cars, new sofas, computer, widescreen tv, lcd tv, kids toys, clothes, clothes and clothes, table and chairs, in fact when I look round our house I wonder if there is anything our debt hasn't paid for!

  • My sanity and my safety. Escape from an abusive partner a number of years ago. The counselling to go with it and setting myself up with job, clothes and a place to stay. Although I moan about it, it was worth every penny.
    CC2 = £8687.86 ([STRIKE]£10000[/STRIKE] )CC1 = £0 ([STRIKE]£9983[/STRIKE] ); Reusing shopping bags savings =£5.80 vs spent £1.05.Wine is like opera. You can enjoy it even if you don't understand it and too much can give you a headache the next day J

    carve your name in red. the silver slipping and slicing. rose petals blossom and fall. soul steals away.


  • My car... well half my car anyway.
    I was saving up for it but my old car - a little gold punto (RIP) kept breaking down and was costing me a small fortune every month in repairs. I decided it would be better to stop paying out and bite the bullet and get a new one and I love it!!!
    Its also a diesel so its more economical (reasoning to myself!!)

    Everytime I get down about my debt I just think of my car and realise its worth it and will soon be paid off!
