    About £6,000!

    The roof trusses are about £8,000!

    Flippin' heck!

    :eek:

    I'd say tiles 1st then car 2nd...but of course; it depends on your circumstances.

    I'm sure you'll make the right decision.

    I think the roof but do LOADS of homework first as I have built "a bit" and prices vary so much it makes your hair curl !!

    Good shout Zip!!:)

    also to keep your purchasing record upto date to keep receiving your cuppa and cake vouchers, if the rumour is true, that they are not sending them to those that haven't made a purchase/used their JL card!!;)

    dw has not used hers and still gets the perks. (for now anyway but a very good point).

    Think there is a glitch on the mullers. 10 for £4 on receipt.

    4 x Muller Light Fat Free Yogurt - Strawberry (175g)£2.72£2.72
    6 x Muller Light Fat Free Yogurt - Vanilla (175g)£3.00£2.00

    6 for £2 in T.

    On a womble from yesterday.


    Wonder if this would work?

    Buy 12 mullers at asda (10 for £4) + (2 at 68p each = £1.36) = £5.36 spend.

    If receipt shows;
    6 x Muller Light Fat Free Yogurt - Vanilla (175g)£3.00£2.00
    6 x Muller Light Fat Free Yogurt - Vanilla (175g)£3.00£2.00

    Then cost for 12 Mullers would be (£5.36 less apg of £2.40) = £2.96

    If I get the car, it puts the build back by the time it takes me to save £6,000, as we are building as we earn rather than a loan!

    Every penny has to count for us.

    I would never recommend anyone doing a total DIY self-build with no budget!
