  • Hi! Well done - you have taken the first big step!
    Is your council tax over 10 months or 12? If over 12 then you have your two free months coming up.
    You can def shave some money off groceries.. could you save on telephone by switching? I just switched to Primus and saving 10 a month! Good luck!
    :rotfl:
  • Hi Ellesbelles......
    The phone includes a basic internet with BT. i do tend to use local (expensive) shops close to home and not supermarkets etc. Perhaps I should make more time a shop more cheaply but as a male I am lazy and buy only ready meals (Microwaveable) and have aquired many bad habits like this. So yes you are right, must shake myself back to reality. lol
    Thanks.
    Ron
