sounds like your pads are down to metal (or shoes if its the rear), the pads shouldn't be to expensive most places charge about £20 to fit a set its should only take 20 mins/ half hour,

Get them done sooner rather than later though before you ruin your discs aswell, not to forget the risk of brake failure :shock:

It could possibly be excessively worn discs.
