  • Scary ...kids cost lots !

    My OH gets paid weekly, i get paid monthly, so pay all the bills out of my wage and live on his, i give our daughter her pocket money, school dinner money, phone top up money weekly, but she`s 15 and as she is on o2 phone network, i thought i would get her one of them o2 visa debit cards, as they are free to use etc, top it up monthly with the money i give her, £170.00 a month !!!! sounds so much when its one lump sum monthly !

      Blimey, my son gets 20p a day and then earns extra pennies by being nice or gets pennies taken away when he's not so nice. Normally he ends up with about £1.50 a week
      But then he doesn't have a phone as he's only 5!
