    Debt-free and Proud!
    Your conveniently forgetting I've been there, done that and got the T Shirt. I was paying my serious debt off for 12 years before I'd even heard of this site. Also for 9 years of that I was in an abusive relationship where my partner gave me £10 per week and out of that had to come the weeks food for 4 people and any of the children's clothes, shoes, christmas presents, birthday presents etc etc. So I really have been down that road and come out the other end.

    Anyway, today I have spent
    £3.80 on a tuna baguette and a coffee in a cafe,
    £2.50 on Dr Who magazine for daughter,
    :confused::confused::confused::confused:
    What did I say wrong?????????????????????????????????????????????????????
    Debt at highest £102k :eek:

    Anniestar, you know what I am going to say, if the budget can't afford it, step away from ebay! Other itemswill come up and then you will be in a better position. I know it's hard, but listen to your brain and not your sweet little heart.

    If something has to be bought, go for the chocolate as I am sure it will be cheaper :)

    Hope you are keeping busy xx
    Well this s****ng computer is helping me to stop spending! Wouldn't let me log in to anywhere for ages,then took ages to get on to ebay(wish i'd not bothered-the bids on some of the stuff has kept going up-BOO-HOO). THEN..... Couldn't log on here! Not my day I think. Its spooky how difficult i'm finding it to spend money! I think "someone" is watching over me -saving me from myself!!!!!!!!!!!!! Eh Moozie? ANYTHING you'd like to confess? Chocolate update...Didn't want to go out for chocolate so went hunting and found some chocolate chips in my baking cubboard!(annie now hangs pathetic head in shame-they were nice though!) Off to await DH's return from school,will update later if tiscali decide to stop playing silly bu***rs!! Hope your dressin gremoval goes really well and is totally pain free.A XX
