those tilly tidies really do add up over the course of the month ... i dont think we would be anywhere near as well off as we are without them, its not even the paying them ( after all they are pennies) that does it for me i dont think, its the fact that checking every day and doing something keeps it all at the forefront of my mind, so i tend to think of other ways in which to make a wee difference if that makes any sense0

Certainly makes sense to me...... I have no idea how people can manage their money without spreadsheets and online banking. I look at mine every day..... it's a habit.0

Lovely day in London with my friend yesterday.....
4/7 eBay items sold - raised enough to pay for my trip in to London and afternoon tea etc.
Bag on eBay item sold and went for a little bit more than I was desperately hoping for, so not feeling so bad about selling it. Just waiting on the buyer to pay for it now.
