Littlewoods Advert?
Comments

Hi all. Regular visitors to this forum will observe the numerous amount of DMPs in which Littlewoods / Very accounts are included in. One of these DMPs belongs to me. Whilst still credit happy last year I decided that the £200 plus I had already spent on my children was not enough. A quick Internet visit to my Littlewoods account solved this by adding a pair of boots for Darling son £120 a and a Nintendo DS for darling daughter £140. I am a single Mum with an average income.
Thank god I have now had my light bulb moment and thank god I no longer have access to credit. This year I am limiting each child to approx £80 and this is only due to my annual bonus. The presents will also be made up of 50% necessity items (clothes) disguised as presents.
I am so pleased that this advert will not be allowed to affect me. 12 months ago I dread to think...LBM August 2011. DFD somewhere post [STRIKE]2025[/STRIKE]2022 :eek:
