My friend's birthday presents

I went mad and splashed out on several presents for my friends birthday......do you know how much I spent?!
Less than a tenner!!
I bought a load of stuff, plus gift bag and wrapping paper from Primark, and spent less than £8 (well....the cashier helped as he didn't scan a necklace. it was only £1 but £1 is £1!) and her card and badge (it's her 30th) came to about £2!
I was well chuffed with myself!

Debt as of Sept' 2015 (LBM!): £36,351 :eek: (sickening)
Monthly outgoings on debt alone: £1243/month
We're on the right path, we got ourselves here..we're a bit lost, but we'll find our way back again!

Good for you!
I get a real buzz if I find or put together a nice present for someone and it costs very little now.

Primark....not near here! There are clearly many disadvantages to living here! A couple of years ago this area was supposed to be THE place to live - and it is lovely, but cheaper shops/outlets? Oh no....
Well done you!Resolution:
