Caitriona Redmond: 'I was embarrassed when my card was refused at the supermarket'
It has happened before that my card was refused and I had to separate out items on the conveyor belt under the watchful and sympathetic eyes of other customers
The latest electricity bill arrived this week. I can’t really say dropped on the mat anymore because I’m getting e-bills for an additional 1% discount on my energy bills. If you’re not doing this already then I recommend you make the change. Despite the paper envelope not arriving through my letterbox, my heart still did a little nervous swoop as I saw the bill.
The hangover of being constantly stressed about money is that every single bill or charge makes me feel anxious. Okay, I can pay this bill, what about the next one? What happens when Winter arrives and they continue to go up?
