Thanks Kerri. I've decided to start this week with £5.00 (as I've saved so much by the tips on MSE that I can afford it) and will put £10 a month in from when we get paid.

I've adapted & saved the spreadsheet for my stock pile and so far in January i've bought £86.16 worth of bits and have spent ages working out how much they are when not on promotion :rotfl:and *drum roll please* my stock pile is already worth £237.07 !!!:eek:

I have made my 1st actual cash move between purses :j

Second purse now has £10 for January and a further £11 for Cheerios, Handwash and Bold Liquitabs I have used from stores.

I am SHOCKED how expensive Cheerios and Bold are at full price (checked on Sainsburys) because I never actually buy at full price .....well not unless I am completely stuck for the product.

Full price for 20 x Bold Liquitabs is apparantly £6.70 something :eek:

This is what i'm worried about. When it finally comes to buying from my store and something is full price I won't want to buy it :rotfl:I never pay full price for anything if i can help it

I sat here with my little Second Purse notebook, tutting away at my pc......"£2.75 for Cheerios, tut tut, £2.03 for that handwash I got on 2 for £1 last year......tut tut tut"

:rotfl:

Good job everyone is out - they already think I am bonkers

BUT it does show what a great idea it is to stock up (if you can afford it) when you see a good deal - if only I could carry more, I have to lug everything back from shops, balanced on baby grandsons pushchair!

But this is pretends money?, income is the same? Just playing shops- no real increase in income?
