obssesive MSE disorder

Nickynoo1

Is it just me? I seem to spend rather a lot of time here lately. In fact i worried it's becoming obssesive. I'm sure I should be doing other things, but find my self just having a quick glance at this site then spending a couple of hours here. :-/

It has stopped me going shopping and sppending money ;D but can it be good for you. Might have to start withdrawing or maybe just go cold turkey.

Does anyone else spend more time here than think think is reasonable/healthy?

Do you come here often? No, not a chat up just wondered how long other MSE'ers spend here

I've had this condition for a while now. It's getting worse (or should I say better?). There is no known cure either. Indulge - at least I'm not going round the shops!!!!

Does exactly what it says on the tin, then.

We are Money Saving Experts due to the fact that we spend less time in the shops spending money and more time on here ;D

I'm also suffering the symptems of MSE dissorder!I'm exhausted because I rarely get to bed before 1.30 from sitting here to long.I have a 16 month daughter who still wakes in the night fairly often, and I have to be up at 7.30 to get the boys ready for school.
My house is a tip, theres so much washing to sort out etc....
My little girls just gone off for a nap and I should be getting on with all them boring jobs, but no, I'm sat here again babbling on....

I wonder what percentage of obssesive MSE'ers are sitting on Viking Leather Chairs.

Must be a cult thing

I thought it was just me! I've always been a girl for a bargain but all this is on another level! The last couple of weeks have been spent sloshing vinegar and bicarb all over as well as jostling at the reduced counter in Sainsburys. Was very interested to read the thread on value products, so have stocked up on the recommended items from Tescos and await the response from the family. Actually nearly cheered when I got my bill there - under £22 for loads of stuff! ;D

I also am addicted! Only found this site a couple of months or so ago, but now I check it several times a day, and can also spend hours when I just came for a 5 min break.

Downside - not doing as much exercise as i need - I must now have that official complaint of MSE bum (it gets bigger, hopefully in line with my savings ;D ) Maybe we'll have to start an MSE gym?

Upside - apart from not being in town, I now have £150 worth of Boots points. ;D ;D ;D Saving them up for a new TV/dvd/Vcr combo for my bedroom.

Right - gonna shake my tush, with the vacuum etc. and call it my MSE workout. Might keep me off here for an hour or two . Catch ya later.
