Debtors advised to miss January sales
Fri 4 Jan 2008 5pm
People with large credit card bills after Christmas should avoid the high street during January, a debt adviser has stated.James Ketchell, spokesperson for the Consumer Credit Counselling Service, said that staying away from tempting bargains should be the "first thing" that people should do when attempting to tackle their money worries.
"There's nothing worse than having a big credit card debt and piling on another load of debt," he explained.
Mr Ketchell also said that budgeting becomes "especially" important for people at this time of year, before urging those with serious debt problems to seek help from professional sources.
He said: "There will be some people who just won't have enough cash to continue.
"In those instances, it's always best to seek advice from an independent charity or debt advice organisation"
Sainsbury's Bank recently recommended that people view the start of the new year as a chance to review their financial situation.
