    Welcome sugarpuss27! Agree absolutely, my OH has just had his LBM and its made a huge difference, before I felt like what I was saving in one hand he was spending in the other! His latest phrase is.. 'we could buy it....then we both say BUT WE'RE NOT.'
    Hi Picklepot :wave: Know what you mean, it seemed really difficult to put over to him how important even pence were and where money was going. He used to get very defensive about it. Now it's clicked he wonders why he didn't get it before! i'm just glad he got it all so that we can get on with it:D:D
    By the way love your name:)

    £1.94 ... daughter has just told me she might be moving out for uni instead of living at home, mixed emotions however the first thing I thought was how am I going to survive without her rent money! Just been on the stepchange website it advises me a DRO may be my only hope! this doesn't sit well with me... if I were living the high life I wouldn't mind so much ... well just have to carry on and see what happens, I think my first move is to set up a basic bank account..just in case.
