Thank you Skinty. It is payday finally, hurrah. £250 has gone to savings. The credit card bill for this month and next month is taken care of. It is raining gently today. The lawn is looking much better. Today I am hoping to sort the wires at back of the tv and clean sink in kitchen. Upstairs is looking very minimalist. I like it.Aiming for a minimal spend 20222

Hurrah after all my bills are paid (that includes the OPs and saving) I have £180 for food and fun. That is fine I think as I have lots of dried food in and just need veg and fruit for rest of the month.Aiming for a minimal spend 20222

It’s so annoying when that happens. I bought some L’Oreal elvive shampoo from morresons £1.50 for what I thought was a good price and when it arrived it was one of those tiny little holiday bottles 😂 50ml. That’ll teach me to check the size / weight !Retired at 55 & now living off the equity £10k a year

I'm hoping the new ones come soon so I can finish decluttering the wardrobes for the winter. Yesterday I bought a garden present for £30 for a friend. Today was a loong work day. I just mowed the grass and now it is raining gently.Aiming for a minimal spend 20221
