    hi everyone, just a quick quarterly check in ;)

    i am still here, still potting everyday that I can. think im doing quite well but i just cant stop spending!! im not in debt but my spare cash always goes instead of in the pot. i know what on but maybe i should get a little notebook (more money!!!) and keep a spending diary!

    anyhow. any tips appreciated and maybe i need to post more often to focus my mind :)

    I'm out of work as of today, so there will be less potting from my own change, but I'll be keeping an eagle eye out for roadkill :D

    Oh mooomin, I am so sorry to hear that :( I hope things improve very soon x

    Change from shopping potted : £1.05 which leaves me a tenner for the rest of the week. It should be plenty.....

    I have to do a bit of financial juggling in the next few days as a fixed bond is maturing this month and I rely on the interest to top up my pension. The new bond rates are pants so I know that my income will drop by around £40 a month :shocked: It doesn't sound like a lot of money but £40 buys fuel for the car for about 3 weeks :( I intend to write down all spends for the next month as they occur and try to analyse where I can make savings. I don't really want to spend any of my savings at this stage on day to day living as it can never be replaced :cool: Sorry to digress sue but I needed to write that down to help me feel more positive :o

    Hugs to anyone poorly or job hunting x
