I'd never heard of Yankee Candles until people on here were talking about them, then I went to the village pharmacy last night and there is a HUGE display of them all marked down in price! Not even a fancy chemist either, but for anyone in the Cleveland area who wants these things, Marske pharmacy on the square have hundreds of them at reduced prices in the back amongst the wierd reduced christmas decorations and big glass perfume bottles

Hi el
That's the trouble with cashback cards they come with built in justification.
How about you make yourself up a conversion card-ie £50= 10 hours of night-shift that kind of thing. Keep the list celotaped to the card=a last line of defence !!

elantan

you know i think that might help me will do it thanks duchy ...when i eventually take this card out of the envelope i'm gonna get some queer looks lol

elantan

right ive done it..i have wrapped the amex visa in two post it notes sellotaped it so much i am gonna need to cut it with a pair of scissors in order to get the thing out and written in big purple letters "FOR EVERY FIFTY POUNDS £50 YOU SPEND IN THIS CARD YOUR GONNA NEED TO WORK A NIGHT SHIFT TO PAY IT OFF .DO YOU WANNA DO THAT?" on both sides then put it back in the envelope and sellotaped that as well ...hopefully that should work lmao ...thanks again duchy and eveyone

Congrats Elantan, sounds like you're really determined! Things seem to be creeping back on my credit card with my OH out of work, and bills needing to be paid Plus I had to get some new glasses, so in total I think I've paid off about £280 of debt this month, once I cancel out the money onto the mastercard vs the money off my family loan and next account. Really annoyed, wanted it to be more, and when i'm dissapointed I tidy, and that inevitably seems to involve me buying things to tidy into. Never ever going to learn

elantan

yep been there done that too i have so many new bright shiny boxes that are meant to be filled with useless pieces of paper but somehow still lie around in thier packaging ...or maybe that's just me
