Mortgage free by 2023 (!)

Karmacat

It does nothing structural, does it - nothing to solve the underlying issue.  Though I'm not quite sure what *would* solve it, it's a long time in the making.  At the moment, anything that helps us keep things under control is good, I suppose.

Woke up to two surveys on prolific which netted me over £8. One credited straight away so £7.97 cashed out and divvied up.

No real wins of note this month, just happy to be plodding on consistently towards our goals 

Karmacat

The consistency is what's important, you're right.  There's a lot going on, for everyone, you as well, and we do what we can.  Look up at the sky sometimes 🌞

Boring consistent months have a much bigger contribution to the end target than exciting on-off months. Just got to keep heading in the right direction!

Erratic and exciting is fun though 😀😀😀

Gorgeous day yesterday so got loads done in the garden. Today already looking lovely again. 

DH wages were a little more than expected this month so bought £50 of premium bonds. 

Karmacat

Premium bonds are a good use of a bit of unexpected money, and can fairly quickly be re-allocated to other stuff if needs be.  I like that

How is it June?

Money in money out day!  

£5 redeemed through Nectar today as well as £8 topped up on Amazon from ipsos and a pinecone survey. I may have bought an item of clothing from Sainsburys for £20 to claim 750 nectar points. I’ll return it next week because randomly nectar don’t take them back!

£25 in from 1poll. 

So not a bad start to June! 

Karmacat

Absolutely, it seems *mad* that it's June.  We're in a time slip off Doctor Who
