    Payday again!!! Just cant seem to save anything outside my regular saver at the moment, but It has been 3 weeks since I worked at the Pizza Shop but finally done some hours over the weekend to keep me in spending money! So hopefully should get back on track. At the moment there constantly seems to be something to shell out for? i.e Wedding this weekend and new suit required!!!!! Its weird, but i dont feel like I am saving anything at the moment then i remember I have £1250 in my Regular Saver!

    I know that feeling about the regular saver, its like a sealed pot, and easy to forget. Always a nice boost tho when you do think your savings are going badly to remember it's there.
