Thursday 17th April - What small DFW things are you doing today?

When I got paid this month, I have started this month moving any residual money into a "Sweepings Up" savings account.

For example, there was £6.74 left in my "Motoring / Petrol a/c" from last month's budget so I rounded that down to £6.00 by moving the remainder of £0.74 to the "Sweepings Up" account .

If you look after the pennies, the pounds look after themselves

Today I have:

1. Opened another savings account for Christmas and one for Birthdays
2. Registered with train companies to get extra Nectar Points (Thank you Lillian1977 )
3. Organised a budget for the rest of the year
4. Signed up to 'Save the Change' with my bank where they round all my card purchases to the next £ and add the extra into my savings account
5. Counted out my change jar and bagged it up ready to take to the bank next time Im in town (£12 )
6. Made tea from what we had left in the fridge - Chicken, leek and mushroom lasagne - was yum
