    Hi Ev,

    I'm on PAYG and it works fine for me, as I tend to use my mobile hardly at all for ages and then a little bit. I also mainly use it for txt.

    I think you're doing really well. I found it really hard when my kids were little - less money around and more things to spend it on (cute clothes, toys, fun days out) - mind you I was really happy-poor but happy:rotfl:

    Good Luck

    Still nothing!

    Finances can start to be sorted again from Friday when dh gets paid - he'll get a bit of back pay too from pay rise so hopefully can shift it to savings.

    Not much else in terms of money saving - a few survey sites building up nicely.
  • .....not only the back pay that'll need shifting by Friday!

    .....time for that hot curry soon.....at least the weather's not too hot for you.

    LM :)
