    Afternoon All!
    Got home at lunchtime to find my Tax Credits award:j Till I looked at it...............they said they'd overpayed me by £6800:eek: :eek:
    Checked it again, and found....................that my £4995 salary, had become..................£49995:eek: :eek: :eek: Wish I did earn 49K!!!!!

    Phoned them immediately, and thankgoodness, a lovely man believed me, and said he'd get another award sent out straight away. Sounds laughable now, but it wasn't funny when I opened it!:rotfl:

    Anyway, calmed down now, cup of tea helped. Thinking about tonight's dinner. Went to Mr T and got corn-fed organic chicken legs and two pork joints all reduced, so they've gone in the freezer.:T

    Enjoy the rest of the day!
    I Believe in saving money!!!:T
