Postman has just been to my door! Can't wait to read it

- this website and all the people on these forums have really given me some brilliant advice and - best of all -lots of hope to see that money can be dealt with sensibly. Finding MSE was probably the most important thing that has happened to me in 2006!

Thanks Martin, and everyone on here :beer:

    Got mine last week - Been out today and bought the 5 esssentials for cleaning - does anyone know where you can get big bottles of white vinegar? - had to settle for a 1 ltr bottle from Sainsburys - Can't say that it makes the household cleaning anymore enticing but I'm looking forward to clearing out the hundreds of cleaning bottles from my cupboards.

    Try local asian/caribean supermarkets. I get a 5ltr bottle for about £3.50
    There is nothing either good or bad but thinking makes it so.
