Hi Mish, it's spooky, I was just thinking I hadn't seen a post from you for a while. How's it going?
I think it's Tesco (aka the devil's shop) online that doesn't accept Electron - apparently there isn't a call for it. You also can't use it at the self service tills.

blimey Tesco's not accepting online ?? I thought they were taking over the world. Hope it doesnt extend to the stores, that would be bad news.
Oh well, beggers cant be choosers, me thinks.

I try and avoid Tesco at all costs as I really don't like the way they are taking over the world. I wish I could afford to shop at the local corner shop as it isn't a Tesco - yet!

We're lucky that we have Asda close by as well, so we often go there.
No 7up4it, you're not a bad person. None of us are bad people - yes, we are in debt, but we haven't actually hurt anyone. I agree that money management should be taught as a life skill at school - it's something we all need to know.

The glossy TV adverts for loans and credit cards kind of stick it down your throat that its a good thing to borrow. They portray a perfect world of debt, ie ooooh thats much less than we are paying now, whilst the wife takes a video, I used to be sweating wondering if it would be accepted myself.
Anyway, youre not bad, dont think that for a second.
