Jealousy is like a malignancy. It can eat away at someone's soul. I pity the person whose days are spent watching what their neighbours buy, how colleagues spend their holidays, fret over the new car their neighbour has just bought, the happiness their brother might feel after landing that new promotion and the good fortune of others which destroys their fragile world.
They take no pleasure in their own life because they are all consumed in the lives of others. Very very sad individuals.To do is to be. Rousseau

Just a quick message as day and half behind.
Bought Glamour for the BS cards. Both my copies (mum liked one of the polishes) had 2 BS cards in. On spent £4 to get £12 back and I am sure I can find a few nice stocking fillers or actually useful things with them. Might have a birthday while I am there. All 4 the same so must be £3 ones. Mags were bought in sainsbury just in case it was only their batch to get double cards. Might have to treat dd to a mag as 20% off H and M plus a sample or 2.
Treated myself to Elle as well for the Benefit eyeliner and card inside for Jigsaw. Does anyone know where I can find out the symbol amounts please.
I am sure DD would be willing to detour past it on way back to train after IDH but best to know value first.
None mse day as Dentist for a nice clean, Holland and Barrett for some vitamins then sainsbury for £9 worth of magazines. But lots of free gifts and vouchers for BS more than covered my magazine spend.
7 boxes crossed off my quidco plus managed to get decent seats for Boxing day disney on ice for dgd. She will be getting far too many toys but apparently she needs to go suitably dressed:eek: Will save that spending for next month.
Long post for someone passing through. Hope everyone is well and staying warm.
Little T you have done fab so far and as nanny says it will catch up next week. Sometimes the tape measure tells us more than the scales.
See you when I have caught up.

why are people so mean and nasty? I am honestly crying. I have never claimed to be skint on here, I've never been dishonest......yes my kids do go to private schools because I've worked hard and I can afford it. Im in no way ashamed of it. if I can send my children to a private school so they can be successful like me, I will!
Im. not skint but I am in a position where I need to look after my finances because I have no incomehow dare anyone criticses my choice for educating my children
I work hard to educate my children so they can support themselves.
I don't want to ask this but did the troll really say they wished my husband woukd kill himself?? If so shame on them

That is a very valid point BB. People just can't say what they want on the internet any longer and get away with it. There are laws to protect people. Im sure that there are new laws against stalking. Folk have gone to jail for it.We should not take lightly veiled threats about knowing where people live, what car they drive and which schools their children attend. It is beyond trolling.
Someone who knows the system better would be able to advise but surely MSE can trace this person. It can't be rocket science.To do is to be. Rousseau

Bananababe :iloveyou: you pretty much wrote what I was thinking. Must be that fiery blood
FC, lots of love. You are an amazing lady. Simple as that....those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind.

Happy shopping elite.
It is with a heavy heart I catch up this morning, FC I hope you are ok.
The compassion, care and respect shown on the thread is amazing. This is what I am focusing on.Mortgage debt 45,000. Thank you all for your help so far in helping me save to buy the house. I could not have done this without all your help.0 -

Mortgage started June 2015 = £170,000 January 2022 = £134,000
Saving for Xmas 2022= . . Amazon £55
