    Thanks guys. I just knew with Christmas coming that I'd have to remove temptation all together. And now I have!

    I'm loving the Crispy Crispy Snip Snip club - and yes Sassers, isn't cutting through the chip sooooooo satisfying. :D

    Hi, Molanole!

    I'm having one of those "can't sleep" nights - although I am thinking of going up to lie on the bed and try to doze off, as I have to be at work early, and am working late tomorrow night, so need all the rest I can get... :o

    Sassers - definitely start the CCSS club...I think it sounds like a great idea! :T

    I've done it!

    I phoned and closed my HSBC credit card this morning. My balance has been sitting around zero for a while and I was going to keep it for work expenses but it was too tempting to spend on it when I had work stuff on there. So, the remove the temptation altogether I closed the account totally this morning. What a relief! :D

    The card is now cut into mini pieces. To quote Sassers: :T:T:T:T

    Interestingly, they didn't even try to keep me by offering any incentives. Perhaps by paying off my card in full all the time they felt they weren't making any money out of me! I don't care.... Bye bye HSBC Credit Card!! :j

    thats brilliant, cant wait for us to do that
