On pigsback there's a link to get a free sample of Purina balance (cat food). In my experience you normally get a full sized packet and a money off coupon too!! Every little helps

hope you are feeling better cath , migraines are horrible :-(

Are there any electronic shops /second hand shops in your area jen that might buy your laptop? Would save ebay charges and post hassle.

HI everybody. Just trying to decide whether to go to wo*k today or not... I still have a mild headache and I feel kinda 'muzzy'...not sure whether to go in or go back to bed-or whether to go back to bed for an hour and then see how I feel...

Morning All

Hope you are feeling better Cath. xx

Jen - they havent accepted my F&F settlements as yet. I didnt think they would at 30% but its a starting point. Im hoping they all go for 50% max.

Well i bagged up my change yesterday and have bought it into work to put into the bank. There was more than I thought, so that makes £76 extra. :j

Got to pay that in, post my mobile and some other bits at post office and pay a cheque in for work as well. So wil do all that around 10ish i think.

Morning everyone, hope you feel better soon Cath.

I'm considering going to my mums house with my dad (100 mile drive) today. I was also in bed last night thinking as I'm a terrible sleeper... in my first year of uni I bought my mum a CD player for her car out of my overdraft... not sure why I felt the need to do that but I have tended to spend too much on people in the past. Anyway, it was only used for about 6 months in the end as the car had to be sold when my parents divorced and her new one had a CD player. It cost me £100 from halfords, but I got it half price so it should have been £200 really. I'm contemplating selling it because it will never be used again and I don't think my mum would mind knowing the debt I'm in. It has literally sat in a box for the last two years. Any ideas what I should try and sell it for? I might try sticking it on gumtree first instead of ebay.

Have you looked on ebay completed liostings to see how much they are selling for on ebay Nicki?

Nichelette

I haven't Cath, but I'll dig out the box to see what the spec is then I'll definately have a look. I hope I can get a reasonable amount for it so I can put the money in my ISA!
