Yep! I tend to have a Tilly tidy most days!
I do deluxe Tilly tidies and round the account down to the nearest fiver-or tenner if I'm feeling flush. So if I have (for example) £109.57 I will move the £9.57 into savings-only odd days for the bigger moves. I have managed to save well over £100 some months just from the tidies! It is very addictive! :TGE 36 *MFD may 2043

Good luck on your journey, it will be so worthwhile in the long run. Cutting back on buying stuff but keeping some funds for fun is the way forward!Paid off mortgage nine years early in 2013. Now picking and choosing our work to fit in with the rest of our lives!
Still thrifty though, after all these years:D0 -
Thank you secret squirrel! We've bought and paid for our fun, and he's sitting on the drive wrapped up warm! The only fun we are having is in our campervan. Forever!Debt free as of July 2010 :j
