Hi
I saw this thread and thought I'd done nothing today but I have....
done piggy clicks,
requested payment from topcashback,
got extra 200 tesco points from buying baby products,
checked my bank account online and updated my spreadsheet in readiness for payday tomorrow.
It's weird that these have now become daily staples and now I feel the constant urge to SAVE MORE MONEY!!!Mortgage OP 2025 £7050/7000Mortgage OP 2024 £7700/7000
Mortgage balance: £34,965

This may not be totally relevant but for the 1st time in around 4 yrs me and hubby have got through a whole week without borrowing money from anyone including parents. We normally owe at least £20 per week to someone but more like £40/£60 which always messes us up for the following week. We dont have any spare cash but we have got through the whole week and have 29p in the bank and owe no one nothing well family that is. Owe money to other folks
well debt collectors
