    I haven't sold anything for a long time so not entirely sure, but it used to be £50. You can withdraw less but I think they charge a fee. This may have changed, I'm sure someone will be along to correct me if I'm wrong :)

    :eek:£50!!! Oh cripes I had better hope the rest sells!!!!

    Its good I think. Forces you to save it!

    Give the drinks a miss. Have a DVD night in. Plenty of time for that when you have your finances sorted. You still have your niece's birthday to be sociable so you won't feel like a hermit come Monday.That's my advice anyway!

    How old is she turning?

    True!!

    Good plan and I can be the smug non-hungover person on Friday :D

    She's going to be one! So cute she's already toddling around, can't wait to see her!

    I’m starting to get a bit tired of repeating myself to close friends that I can’t afford stuff. When will it sink in? Three times I've explained to one friend I'm not eating out/ordering in anymore for the forseeable and she has just text saying tonight we will order pizza! I had originally invited them to me for my spag bol but they changed it to hers and now this.

    I'm going to end up saying no to any invitations. It'll be easier!
