I'm thrilled DP moaning

Hi all, just looking for validation I guess. We had a LARGE bill coming due today that we first started discussing and worrying about 6 months ago. We basically agreed it was an impossible amount and we were screwed. I started doing extra work/extra hours, saving every single penny I could, cutting all expenses (hobbies, take-aways, making own lunches, etc). As recently as 1 month ago we had virtually nothing saved for the bill but with all the out goings trimmed and/or pre-paid knew this month would need virtually nil to get through and all money could go to THE BILL. Today we paid it in full and all DP could say was we never have any fun any more Confused Sure it hasn't been fun or easy but we knew we had no choice but to pay this bill and we made it! I feel great and don't understand DP's moaning (actually I do but come on, it had to get paid!). Anyway just needed to get it out there that I feel great about it even if it was hard! Thanks for listening!

Well done, that is quite an achievement.

Boring but more realistic reason that would be judged on here such as unpaid taxes?
Not as much fun as the prior guess, but not correct either. Grin

@THEsonofaBITCH we are always looking to keep ours low cost. We signed up to the trial of the tastecard + it was a £1 for three months. Anyways you get amazing deals on food like buy one get one free on started, mains and desserts. So we went out to Frankie and bennys and both had a drink, starter, main and dessert and it cost us £33 for us both. Plus on the plus addition they do discounts of cinema and other places too.

Or look at places like sizzler pubs, hungry horse etc where they offer sign up drinks or vouchers.

Another one is vouchercloud.

I have just signed up to for airtime rewards so it gives em money back towards my phone bill so what I save there I use for me time.

Well done on clearing it though I am the same as you and my partner never understood xx
