I think anyone who pays for their own stamps will notice this price hike.

Yeah I bought a book of second class stamps last week with that in mind, and I was thinking I can make these last because they just say 2nd on them, but then I realised they've got pictures of pantomime dames on them! So it would be a bit obvious that they were old stamps lol! So I'm going to have to try and use them up this month. I've got 3 left now.

My Dad takes care of me when I'm home lol so I don't have to worry about anything. I'm definitely going to try and get a job next year though, I can't have another year like this! But my house next year is about £20 a week cheaper so that's quite a bit extra I'll have, plus I'll have my boyfriend to look after me! :lol:
Wow, time really does fly! Sounds good, every bit extra mounts up. :) I'm going to have to stock up on stamps with just the '1st' on it rather than the price before next month though. :?

Phoebe :D

Haha are you being serious?! :lol: I most certainly don't! You're thinking of sixth form and college students on EMA. We're not entitled to that at University.
I get a loan 3 times a year, but once they've taken the money out for your accomodation you're left with about £50 to last you 4 months. It's very difficult to get by on, I'm permanently hungry :lol: I only get to have a proper meal when I go home!
Awww poor you Hayley! Stick it out, it's all worth while. :) EMA is an unfair system too. :?

Seriously? lol I want to be paid for being in university! :P
If you do, which I'm not sure of, £30 isn't alot of money to get by on. I don't notice it because I'm only a young teenager and my mum pays for pretty much everything but I know £30 isn't alot.
