  • Are you checking the websites for furniture? These past 2 days I have seen different people offering a 3 piece suite, a coffee table & a chest of drawers, all free! Sites such as Gumtree, Freecycle & local "buy,sell & wanted" sites are well worth searching:)
  • not much luck on free in my area but I am watching some appliances on bay of E and I've bagged myself a free kettle. It was the spare from work my boss said I could have :)
    I do now have a number of second hand sights saved along the toolbar of my laptop :)

    How does the CSa payment work, will you get a lump some for the backdated bit or is it split over the weeks.
    You've accumulated quite a bit, that's good.
    A positive day.

    I think they just divide it over a number of weeks but even if they give him a year to pay it off with the amount that's accumulated I should get around £340 pcm by the time I actually start receiving it :D its a fantastic amount and I cant say i'll feel guilty one bit
    :p
