I'm getting so irritated at the laughing about the crazy spending.
The guy who's bought the expensive shoes that don't even fit! I'm hoping something helps as that poor woman wants to take her dad away.

I just get so angry!! How can they be so utterly stupid?

Reluctantadult · 05/05/2022 21:21

I said to dh i don't know how to take these programmes. I feel like the media is trying to put a spin on things in light of the cost of living crisis, where people just need to stop being so silly with money.

Flamingmentalcats · 05/05/2022 21:23

How much did the first couple earn? I missed that bit. I can't believe people spend like that and need tv people to come in and sort their money out. Is it not just common sense to stop spending £££ on shopping or eating out of you want to save up for something? Or maybe that's just me!

What an annoying show. Particularly at the moment when people are genuinely struggling, and it's not because they've bought too much designer gear and cars!

Juniper68 · 05/05/2022 21:25

Yes it is annoying. People going to food banks and she's getting a facial over 2k ffs

I think it's indecent - how can they be such idiots? I have no sympathy for their lack of grip.

Juniper68 · 05/05/2022 22:48

Me neither Lady. Doubt I'll watch again.

The pair of them are in cloud cuckoo....how she's got the neck to complain about him (the main earner, she won't be getting much as a carer's allowance) spending and then she has a £2,700 facial? Just ugh.

These programmes are all the same. They focus on people who earn a decent wage but waste it on stupid stuff. They should be doing programmes on how the normal person who earns less than the average annual wage who are barely scraping by.

Yes that would be watchable.

They won't make programmes like that though because it won't be the big massive savings and won't make the programme look like they are wonderful professionals.

There was one recently where a couple were spending all their money on designer crap and moaning they couldn't afford a deposit for a house. The sort of spending which would be unattainable for most people. It really pisses me off these programmes, as then you get a load of people thinking all young people are like that and that it is their fault they can't buy a house. These programmes just encourage these untrue stereotypes even more.

Oooh I want to watch this

AnotherFuzzyJumper · 05/06/2022 13:48

Does anyone know where I can watch the 4th episode? It doesn't seem to be available on 4oD or am I missing something?

LadyAddle · 08/06/2022 18:28

@AnotherFuzzyJumper I can't see episode 4 either on 4oD - I'm glad you said that, I thought it was a glitch on my laptop. Feel a bit ashamed, I was only wanting to see how they dealt with the hot tub splasher!

AnotherFuzzyJumper · 08/06/2022 20:21

@LadyAddle thanks - glad it's not just me then!

BarbaraofSeville · 18/06/2022 20:42

Episode 4 is on 4OD now. It's nuts, there's a man spending £100 pm on bedding and they've got bags and bags of unused stuff in the loft. Just why?

AnotherFuzzyJumper · 19/06/2022 07:51

@BarbaraofSeville the bedding was the most bonkers part. Just .... why so much bedding?!

TitsInAbsentia · 19/06/2022 16:25

Came in here just to say yer man with the bedding!! And why was she just shoving it in the loft? Got the receipt take it back you fools! They were a strange couple.

wotsitsaremyfave · 22/06/2022 16:33

Just realised its Mother Pukka!

CuriousMama · 22/06/2022 17:38

Beyond mad. All that stuff could go to people who need it.
