What Do You Do Every Day?

I get a kick out of knowing that each time I log on, it's a day closer to updating my signature and seeing that debt going down!

I look on rightmove everyday for suitable houses in what will be our price range. It helps to have a goal. We will be actually properly looking after Christmas but it has been really useful to know recent sold prices and see what has been listed removed then relisted a few months later. It has kept me focused.

Duolingo is a great little habit former for learning a language. I've being doing Swedish and Norwegian for over a year now. It's good to get into a routine, but it's also handy if you're stuck waiting for a delayed train or sitting in the waiting room at the doctors. I injured myself a few months back, requiring surgery, and I swear Duolingo's kept me sane at the fracture clinic and physio!

This made me laugh, as I am a languages graduate and already speak French & Spanish, but I am glad this is working for you.

Cast an eye over all my fresh food so nothing needs to be thrown out and wasted as it has gone off.

I do that too! Ok we rent but I like to think if we wanted to move somewhere bigger, I'd have the money to do it!

I watch dave ramsey on YouTube when I'm cooking the dinner. I love the debt free screams. Seeing that folks have paid off thousands of even hundreds of thousands of dollars makes me believe I can do it too. This week I'm going to buy containers to take food to work. I'm spending too much in tesco again.
I also drink water at work.

I am so glad you replied - I have been racking my brains for days trying to remember that guy's name... Dave Ramsey. Thanks! Don't be too hard on yourself with Tesco - we all have our vices xx

I've been doing the language thing too, as one of my goals for 2018 was to speak much better Spanish. Just been on holiday there and did understand everything that was going on! :-) The apps I use are Duolingo for the basics and Lingobites to ease myself into the language by reading stories. Both are free so it's great moneysaving!

I've had a satisfying month just bringing lunch everyday (think I've only purchased lunch about 4 times) and I've taken up bringing a bottle of squash to work and keeping it on my desk to mix it up between water and something with a bit more flavour. My biggest vices were always buying lunch and Starbucks coffee: and I've kept both at an absolute minimum this month compared to the everyday expenditure it used to be. This saving has meant i've paid off my credit card in full and cancelled it, which is really satisfying.

My only remaining vice is I have to have an energy drink everyday which means I buy them in bulk weekly at something like £8 a week - that's my habit to kick next month!

P.S. I also check Prolific everyday: an academic survey website. Some days there isn't much but I made £10 yesterday. Surveys can pay anything from 50p to £6.00, but it all adds up!
