    Good afternoon to you all, hope you're well.

    Paid another £48.07 today so the new total is.....



    £215.06/£4500

    I have got to say though, all these dribs and drabs of money i'm finding, must have been there before and i can't help but feel very disapointed with the "old" me for being so careless.

    On a lighter note, i have had two early bids on ebay which i am quite pleased about, 2x 99p items but all the pennies soon add up

    xx

    I'm the same, just gathering up the "loose change" from things and switching £10 every now and then to my savings has netted an extra £150 in January. It's scary how much money we can just fritter away in £1/£2 here and there!
