Only go for a dump in work, save a fortune on bog roll.

Use a direct debit for your credit card bill- people who use credit cards as short term finance are morons. With a direct debit you can get up to 2 months to 30 day interest free periods.

Best way to avoid being ripped off is to avoid paying tax by any means possible. The government is ripping us off and now wants us to be ripped off even more in the 'national interest'. No way Jose! They wasted my money and I say enough. There should be a campaign for people to withold ALL taxes until we are assured our money is spent wisely and those who presided over this mess disappear.

I buy my hard drugs direct from source now. The dealers were ripping me off, so I had them all wiped out like cockroaches and took over their shipments. Now no-one will rip me off. Always cut out the middle man...

Plus, try to use electricity after six, and use Skype...
