When you use ‘plastic’ you don’t FEEL the money going.

Instead of putting everything on your credit/debit card, get a sensible sum out each week, on a Monday and make it last the week.  If you can’t be strong, get someone else to hold the kitty and give you a daily allowance.

I know this sounds dreadful, but this credit squeeze will hurt even more if we don’t make the effort to help ourselves.  Try it, it works!
