Hi Posting,
Thanks for the mid-week push...have had to spend £3.80 already on bus fare to hosp:mad: - should be finished going for awhile now. Plus took in-laws to dinner and tourist attraction on Sun (over £100)
, but think I can claim doesn't count as pre-planned??? If it does, I am already ashamedly WAY OVER and will have to start afresh next week with better resolve.
How is it for you, other than barring yourself in the house? Have a good one...Slowly but Surely...0 -

Hi PaP - I'm HOPING for another No Spend Day today, but to be perfectly honest I'm fed up of staying in the house and really want to go out. I've been glued to the computer (Jobsearching) for two whole days :eek: :eek: and I'm getting nowhere.I am NOT, nor do I profess to be, a Qualified Debt Adviser. I have made MANY mistakes and have OFTEN been the unwitting victim of the the shamefull tactics of the Financial Industry.
If any of my experiences, or the knowledge that I have gained from those experiences, can help anyone who finds themselves in similar circumstances, then my experiences have not been in vain.
