    Hi Steph, I just wanted to add my support with all the others. Please don't feel bad, what's done is done and you probably had a fantastic time with your family, those memories are there forever you can't get that precious time back.

    Everyone has bad days, thats why we are here, but I bet you not everyone posts every little detail about their finances and what they have spent so well done on being brave. I nearly got a pay day loan yesterday, absolutely ridiculous when I only needed to move enough money to get £10 of fuel and I had a voucher to use for a supermarket to get a couple of bits of food. My payday is tomorrow for goodness sake, how much would that have cost me if I had have gone through with it!

    I think that's why this forum is so important, we can post without being judged, we can post to ask for help, we can post to give support and advice to others, commiserate the blips and cheer the successes, we can pop on here before we make decisions and seek out the best deals or just stop us getting payday loans :D

    I hope you can regroup and come back soon, we're all here for you.

    Hi Steph,

    I agree with the others. You've come so far, don't self-sabotage now and ruin all that good work. Everyone here is rooting for you to get going again.

    Hi Steph, I know you are about to enter your busiest time etc with the wreaths and Christmas stuff too. I hope you will be back in January full of OOMPH to make 2016 the last year of debt for you and your family.
