Hi James,
OMG is it wrong of you to enjoy xmas?? NO of course not.
Keep enough in your account or a related savings account that you can instantly switch over to your current account to make sure you don't overdraw. Then as dd says you can switch it back after xmas IF THERE'S ANY LEFT. Don't feel guilty about having some fun, just set a realistic budget and stay within it. Look at is a great training exercise for when you're debt free.
You have done so well and consistently denied yourself treats in order to overpay more. We all need to have a break to keep motivated for the long term.CCs @0% £24k Dec 05 £19,621.41 Au £13400 S 12600 Oct £11,981 £9481 £7500 Nov £7250 D £7100 Jan 6950 F £5800 Mar£5400 May £4830 June £4660 July £4460 Aug £3200, S £900, £0 18/9/07 DFW Nerd 0420 -

James - you may find that there are some employment laws that limit the number of continuous days that you can do. I get paid on a daily basis, so recemtly did some weeks of 6days and 7days and was told to take some time off in lieu so that they and I dont fall foul of the employment regs.0 -

Hi Farhad my overtime stopped a couple of months ago cos they specifically got a team in to do so they didnt have to pay out overtime costs. Many thanks for ur advice though :beer:Savings Total so far for 2023: £8,062.580 -
