                    Hiya
I did a couple of mystery shops yesterday and I dont know what possessed me but I decided to have a look in Coast and Karen Millen while I was in town. The clothes in there were so beautiful but there is absolutely no way I could justify buying a £150 dress while I'm in so much debt but I've decided that my very first month I am debt free I am going to go in and buy one (seen as I wont be paying £419 to my DMP)....oooo I cant wait!!!
Anyone else think about things like this?!!

 Not a brand new one, but the one I have will have to last till I am debt free which will be in 10 years! But hey it took 12 years to rack up the debt!Give a man a fish and you will feed him for a day, teach him how to fish and you will feed him for a lifetime
