Just saw your reply brandon about Credit Crunch and thought to make a thread about it.
On topic:
Are you getting affected by the Credit Crunch?

Nah I haven't seen much difference yet.
Nope, cant say anything changed with me or my Family.
Channel 4 did during Paul O'Grady. :rolleyes:
And tbh all working adults are, and just fyi, it's going to get a hell of a lot worse, this is just the beginning lol.

I'm a working adult, it's not affecting me. Maybe because I still live with my mum and have hardly any financial commitments. I guess if I were trying to get a mortgage, I'd be in deep poop.

Thanks for this.
I am one of the credit crunch's many victims. Before I could have 3 Weatabix but now I have to have 2. I'm afraid this is just the start of it. :(

TBH I guess I have... Everything really has gone up in price, and it's noticable if and when I do a shop. Also, something I bought my girlfriend from H samuels last year (the exact same product) is 20quid dearer this year...
Also, working in a shop I have seen just about everything rise in price. Imean, its like 60p for a packet of crisps nowadays, I actually paid 75 for a packet of hulahoops today in whsmith... it used to be like 32p!
AND 3 WEETABIX? U FAT SOD.

o yeah
ma day pass is now like £4.75 from £4.40
day light robbery man. and it comes every 30 minutes stopping at 6pm then 1 at 9pm and 11pm.
in like grocery stores, i aint seen no difference in prices, and in clothing stores aswell.
brother lost his job, dad could lose his and theyre unable to get new ones because so many people are losing jobs no one needs workers.
And working in a supermarket i see lots of things rise. Bananas :) gone up 20p/KG since i started working. But tbh, it hasnt affected me personally

yeah, generally diesel but the prices are dropping now :)
however where I work the prices are going up left right and centre, it's ridiculous.

yep familys been affected, dad lost £30,000 in shares was going to be for a car however no luck for me now (at this rate!)
petrol and diesel doesnt have anything to do with the credit crunch. Its just unfortunate that it happened at the same time

haven't really been affected personally, obv. hearing about the usual petrol ect.. and crap like that and they're always doing more offers at work now to sell more things cus sales have dropped.
