    I hate the news!!!!!

    Now chai latte's are going to be made illegal (never had one - tis the principle of choice)


    Nuff said :)

    I know how I coped before the days of streaming and podcasts - it wasn't positive :-(

    Good morning PADders,

    Yesterday we PADded £199.69, I could easily have spent that at Ikea yesterday but chasing after a toddler and carrying a baby that wouldn't sit in his chair meant we'd given up on buying anything by the time we got to self service!

    Have a great day x

    I love chai latte! Costa changed their recipe last year though and they're far too strong now.

    £10 to Tesco CC (congrats on paying yours misfire! I hate their website too!)

    ? I'm not sure I even know what one of those is!? I lead a pretty sheltered life...

    Well done misfire on ridding your life of the Tesco CC. Somehow mine keeps building up - little bit here, but there and then wham! huge interest charge :(

    £61.79 for me today please Sunshine x
  • £3.92 from rainy Oldbury today!

    Can I just say guys how thankful I am for this page! I love reading the inspirational stories in the signatures and they really motivate me! I've done Padding a few times before, but always gave up because I could never see the point of just padding a few quid - it never seemed to make any difference! This time however, I've padded for just over a month and have padded nearly 20% of my outstanding CC bill.

    Thanks again guys!!!

    I have never been brave enough to try Chai Latte! I am a boring coffee person - strong white is my preference! Sunshine81 Ikea and kids - you are braver than me! I try only to go in term time (we use a scrap store for work quite near an ikea so I go there after I have picked the stuff up for work) bummed they stopped their diet coke in IKEA there were nearly tears. Glad its not just me that hates the tesco bank website.

    £1.50 for me today please x

    I have been saving all my PAD's and finally got enough to pay of my Tesco credit card :-) hated everything about that card and their stupid web site


    I thought it was only me who couldn't get on with their website! had a letter from them yesterday implying that a recent payment ( small online PAD ;) ) hadn't been done properly......er how? They didnt explain and had obviously got the payment........and they had paid it to the account and back dated it. I felt as if they were expecting a grovelling apology and some act of gratitude - pah! I just sent them another PAD. So that is........................
