    Get your act together and stop throwing money away! (tough love here comes)

    I know I know, I felt like coming on here and saying

    "Forgive me fellow DFW-ers for I have sinned"

    However since then I have not spent any money on lunches, so spread it over the 3 days (sat/sun/mon) and it doesnt seem toooooooooo bad! :rotfl:

    Oh who I am kidding!? I've been bad, so very very bad :o

    I have just read this post.Well done,it was good and brave.I am so a person who is proud of cheap car insurance,good interest rates on savings!!Well hello,I overspent Christmas and had £85.OO bank charges:rolleyes:

    What bloody fool would do something so stupid but hey I am being paid a high interest rate on my savings!well not £85 worth of interest that,s for sure!!For a long time,about 7 years really!!I have been a complete plonker with money and go to this site to survive,instead of actually confronting my debts of old.In fact I am going to post my anxieties and fears and commit myself to a life instead of an existance,as debt has changed me as a person beyond recognition and you are so right,its always somebody,s elses fault.It,s not,it,s mine,I need to start being open about my debt instead of living my life in secrecy.Thank you.:D

    Well done for confronting your debt. Have you posted a SOA yet? Also, you might be able to pay some off with savings, even the highest rate savings account is earning you less interest than a normal average credit card or loan is charging you. Post the SOA :T and welcome!

    This is such a wonderful idea. Let's do our "crap list". So far we have

    DVDs
    magazines
    canteen food
    designer coffee...

    I'll add
    diet coke
    chewing gum
    empty notebooks i will never use but so beautiful
    bracelets - i always buy them but never wear as uncomfortable... and buy them knowing i would never wear.. whats wrong with me
    picture frames i won't use as my room flooded with picture frames but they just so pretty
    decleor moisturiser for £35 when a £4 boots one would do
    dinners in my fave lebanese when i cant afford
    diaries i'll never use
    tank tops

    :j

    Tank tops :confused: I can't say I have EVER bought a tank top :rotfl:

    My addition is tupperware - strange but true I have so much it is ridiculous, my latest is some little wheelie bin shaped mini containers to take pickles/sauces to take to work with lunch :D

    Must repeat daily 'I DO NOT need any more tupperware containers'

    I am soooooo sad :rolleyes:
