    Hi everyone.... hope you're all having a lovely weekend.
    There's strange things happening in the Sassers household in the last two weeks,mainly to do with money.
    Nice, but strange all the same......this sort of thing doesn't usually happen to me....
    I got paid £500 from a former job that had been miscalculated in wages. Found 75p in shrapnel in the street, then got sent some fab testers to try which means free lunches at work.....
    I also had £100 reversed back into my account after a mistake by Lloyds TSB and I've just found out I won £52 quid on the lottery today...!
    Last week I found out my new mortgage will be going down to £236 a month and the gas debt reduced by £50 due to a mistake...
    Spooky, but I wonder if it's because I've been listening to The Secret?:eek:
    Anyway. Please can I make a pad of £10 today to the gas?
    Thanks everyone - feeling a bit strange!
    Love Sassers x

    Sassers - what is this Secret you're talking about? Quite frankly I'd listen to someone reading the Yellow Pages aloud for a little of your luck! 148fs542321.gif

    Hope your new specs are lovely Clare. Have you ever thought about buying them online? I used to get my Contacts and specs through a big high street opticians and have a deal like you mentioned. Now I buy my contacts and glasses online and just pay my local optician for the check ups. Saves a fortune and I'm on a cash back site too so get a few quiddies back :D Last pair (trendy framless type) £28 with all the fancy lenses!
