  • I won't be spending too much cash (I hope), as my boyfriend and I will be spending quality time together enjoying that which is free - though it would be rude to not go to the sales...

    But at least you have a nice new laptop! :D

    My savings went a bit wrong this month, due to not getting paid when I was expecting to, and slightly overspending on Christmas-related things! Never mind, there's always next year... not very money saving I know but I have to console myself somehow! :p
    If I don't respond to your posts, it's probably because you're on my 'Ignore' list.

    New year is around the corner, we "How much can you save?" gang should have a project for 2009. Perhaps some unique way of saving that we can all share and discuss to encourage us throughout the year. What do you think everyone?

    Its an ok idea. Thing is everybody is in different situation.

    Lucy I think is thinking of moving still? (Or is that a def no no?)
    I am at uni for 6 months and working fulltime for the other 6 months.
    I think McSaver now wants to spend more money rather than save.

    But yeh Xmas has been great. My mums side of family I got £240, my dads side I got £90. I was only expecting £100 overall! I didn't get many other pressies though, got a couplel of dvds and a couple of books.

    Sales here I come!
