    I know :)
    Next month it'll be 14 something :D

    Well today i changed the min payment on my card to £600 :eek: that means by the end of my 0% i would have paid off £2400 leaving my balance at 4k. Hopefully i'll be able to get another 0% to cover the 4k in May....fingers crossed.

    What i need now is Santa to bring me a nice little windfall :rotfl:
    10k will do....for now......

    It was quite enlightening yesterday, me and Dh were having a conversation about what we spent the ££ on. He reminded me that not only did he buy a PS3 when they first came out (£500:eek:) but we also bought a flat screen Tv for around £1200!!!! :eek:
    I could just :wall: at what we spent the £ on!

    Well, never again.
    That is a promise to myself.
    If we haven't got the ££ then we don't have it, and in the style of sergei, simples :D:D

    When you look back and try to think what a lot of it went on ... you're like "idiot" - and to then have to resort to living off the c/cards for things like groceries & fuel etc as you've spent a stupid amount of money on something like a TV or a holiday etc...... arrrrrgggghhh!

    I get really frustrated sometimes when you see some people saying they've had their LBM but then when it comes to their SOA they can't do without x or y (silly things) - not a proper LBM!
