    Debt-free and Proud!
    Happy Sunday hugs to everyone :D

    I don't usually include any savings I make but yesterday i basically argued until i got a discount!

    I have been looking for something to put on top of my wardrobes to keep my craft things in for probably 6 months or more. I found some plastic drawer towers in B&Q yesterday in a section marked 4 for 3 - when i tried to get them i was told they were not in the offer - i asked to speak to the manager and after much calm but determined discussion he agreed to honour the offer :D

    So only because i have been looking for these for so long and my success in negotiating i am adding £15 to my total for this!

    Lets see what Sunday brings now :D

    Lol :rotfl: Instead of just pressing quote you just click the speach bubbles for every post you want to comment on and then on the last one you click the normal 'quote' button and it adds them all to your reply box :D

    ooh found I can exchange points for leisure vouchers which can be used to buy a deal at Butlins:j just rang up to check. She said we would have to pay the deposit by DD or CC on any deal but rest would be by vouchers, sent to head office :j:j:j so am cashing shop and scan from now on for leisure vouchers! We will go to Butlins this year! £40 in vouchers now towards a holiday.

    will have to work out something about travel costs though.. need a few more red spotted hanky giveaways me thinks....

    sending big hugs sweatpeas hope all is well. Think we all feel alone sometimes and we put everyone elses issues before our own and sometimes it just takes saying I need you to listen. Then people realise this is not the norm for you and listen it makes you feeel soooo much better
    Positivity is the key there is a reason why life happens. Find your rainbow and ride it.
