dig a small piece of pavement up at night so no-one sees you then hit your toe with a hammer and swiftly sue the council
I also know someone who has done this aswell! But when my mum really did fall and cause herself serious injury the council were a nightmare about it...probably because of those people who make false claims.

I have it spent before he even gets it in his pocket. I really need to learn to stop...but I'm not spending it on silly things it's just things we need to get by and it's getting ridiculous

Hi Lockes 
it is an awful lot of money to try and save as someone mentioned earlier some banks are giving 100% morgages but by doing that your monthly repayments would be massive , buy a lottery ticket every week someone has got to win it could be you hope so

Any cash I hide in the bookshelf. I'm buggered if Mrs. Bleads ever develops a taste for the classics.
She found my savings book the other day and has already stared planning a trip to Brazil for december. I wouldn't mind but we've only just got back from a holiday.

Yes thanks for that...the problem is I dont have any credit so there is nothing to update on my credit file
Work with cash rather than going to the shop and using a debit card. You can keep better track of your spending that way. Allow yourself a set amount of cash each week and stick to it.
Make a list of all the things you pay out for now like gas and electric and so on.
Anything that isn't essential cancel if you can.
The old saying of watch the pennies and the pounds will look after themselves is true.
It's amazing how lots of small purchases that don't amount to much in themselves add up to a lot of money at the end of the month.
Watch your food bill. Don't buy too many goodies and snacks.
Stick to what you know will get eaten to cut down on any waste.
Think about changing energy or phone providers, you might get a better deal than the ones you have now and save yourself pounds.
