Same as what I said
Dont see how u can be so hard up for money though
You work and have a car AND get student loans but still borrow money off your mum all the time
I dont work, managed to run a car and have a house to look after, bills etc and plus bringing up a kid and dont see me struggling or borrowing or complaining

vaxcorsagirl people have been giving you plenty of ideas on how to save some money but you seen to argue the point that your car is cheaper when in the long run its not really which makes it seem like your car is more important to have than money.

Maybe if people didnt get so much benefits it would be more attractive to go out and get a job

Also becuase my rent is so high, if i was to work Id have about £400 to pay towards my rent and then it wouldnt be worth working as wouldnt be making any more money than what im getting now and also would be spending alot of time away from Rhys.
Waiting to move house so I can go out and work

this is coming from a person who knows the system
a single mother is better off being on benefits than out working

Whats it got to do with you though? £330 a month isnt a lot im sure most people spend more than that on themselves a month or on their cars.
