    My stomach has been off again, am going to make appointment with GP if this carries on over the weekend.

    My last PPI money went in yesterday so £300 to savings .

    Confession time now . Parents have bought new iPad in Black Friday sale £40 off so they are pleased.

    I have took out a new contract phone for £20 a month on my mobile provider , a IPhone SE . My phone is £11 a month at the moment so £9 more . I am happy with my decision the maths are

    Phone contract £20 x 24 months £480 no upfront cost

    To buy phone outright £269 in Black Friday sale . Then £11x24 £264 = £533

    Plus the new contract is unlimited minutes, texts and 4g of data.

    I plan to sell my old phone and put in savings .

    Not sure about IBS, never been this bad before, good thing is I must be losing a few pound because I am not eating much.
