What did you spend your third transfer on?
I had bought most of the things I lacked using my first and second transfer, so when I received my third transfer I concentrated on buying my kitchen ware. I am happy my kitchen is now well stocked. The remaining amount I used to pay school fees for my daughter who is taking a tailoring course. I am happy she is now self-reliant being that she is acquiring the technical skills needed in the current market and, part of the remaining transfer I spent on food.
