    Cheers rlm! I forgot! To be fair, I have to buy put a gas canister thing but it costs me £11 and lasts for 3 months so it's not too bad!

    That's not bad at all! Even if it's just for cooking.

    Hello Hazel!
    I checked on Envirofone and my phone wasn't listed on there! It's a Samsung s500i or something to that effect!

    I definitely have to budget for socialising and treats like you say otherwise it just wouldn't happen!

    youll need to know the exact model for Envirofone

    Also try mopay

    If you want to use envirofone, dont forget to request it via quidco so you get 1.49 for requesting it ;)
    :beer: Well aint funny how its the little things in life that mean the most? Not where you live, the car you drive or the price tag on your clothes.
    Theres no dollar sign on piece of mind
    This Ive come to know...
    So if you agree have a drink with me, raise your glasses for a toast :beer:

    hi lazy,
    you have my most sincere condolences regarding falling off the wagon!!! i know only to well how easy it is to do this (done it myself recently and added £2k of debt to my signature in the process) i am now, however fully back up on the wagon and i am going for it this year.
    as for colleges providing beauty treatments thats a great big GO FOR IT i am also training just now at college, just finishing manicure and pedicure course and starting waxing course at the end of this month (although courses do cost me money i am recouping it back providing treatments)
    all the students are fully supervised before being allowed near paying clients like your good self. so go for a very cheap pampering session just what everyone needs after all the stress of christmas and renewed debt busting
    regards
    mrs a

    I've just checked this for you and it's a massive £6.93 or £7.97 in Argos points....
  • Hello Mrs A! Hope you are well!

    Time for my latest installment...I fear I must be honest with you all...i did something naughty this weekend....rather than paying £3.50 to have a trim at my local college, I decided to go to posh town centre hairdressers with posh prices to match, so here I am, shorter hair and £30 worse off. Drat. Well, serves me right as I now have a big fat 0 in my account and it's over two weeks until payday! I have £250 in my ISA but I am determined not to touch it (this is to pay for my flights to SA) so what am I going to do to survive?!!

    1. I returned 4 x gig tickets as said gig was cancelled, waiting for a £30 refund
    2. I have about £30/£40 in coppers which I will be depositing
    3. I have listed my phone on eBay...same phone has sold for £50
    4. Two other items to list on eBay
    5. My part time job owes me £30 and I reckon I'll be picking up some extra shifts (reminds me - must fish out low cut top for tips purposes)

    I have also just rang Egg and cancelled my card with a zero balance! I will be strong.
    Thought for the day....Why do I seem to be DFW Monday to Friday but it all goes out the window over the weekend? *sighs*
    Was debt free... then went travelling!
