  • * Work 8-6.30pm
    * Surveys
    * Travel insurance for Mum
    * Check CC balances

    Dxxx

    Surveys are up to £5.10 for today :money:

    Super happy with that!!

    CC balances are looking alright, need to stop using my Sainsburys CC for day to day purchases, lose track so easily with that!!

  • * Be debt free (Debt £6,649.97)
    * Have an emergency fund
    * Have a rainy day fund
    * Buy my first ever home
    * Be healthy and happy

    Dxxx

    Debt total as of today is £4747.24, Mum still owes me her holiday money so will get that paid this weekend at some point.

    Started my EF so have £70 in there so far!

    EF is gonna be for periods of unemployment which will hopefully never happen but if this year has taught me anything it is that nothing is guaranteed to last so better to be prepared for the worst.

    I have also decided to start a rainy day fund (RDF) for car repairs, unexpected bills etc and I have £10 in there.

    I am going to add to these 1% at a time and have the money in separate savings accounts, I am using this tracker in my journal to keep me focused.

    Used a bubble bath at the weekend, was a Baylis and Harding that I got as part of a birthday gift in March this year.

    Also my pen in work ran out so grabbed one from the many I have lurking about, I am now writing in a very nice blue colour.

  • Have a lovely day xx
  • £3.15 on surveys today so far!

    Dxxx
  • * London September 2018 - £300/£500
    * Majorca July 2019 - £10/£1000
    * 6 Month EF £70/£7,000
    * Rainy Day Fund £260/£1000

    Dxx

    So today I sat and worked out how much I have earned this year so far with surveys.

    I have spent most of that money already which is not good but I had an idea.

    I had £254.29 transferred to my bank through surveys this year already so I put that in to my Rainy Day Fund, this is money that I would never have had so should be putting it to better use than spending it on lunches and days out!

    I now have 26% of my RDF saved :T:T:T

    Will continue to add all of my survey earnings to this, well apart from the Amazon ones, I do use Amazon a lot to buy gifts for people in work as I am the one in charge of the purchasing so I can use my Amazon vouchers for that later in the year then transfer the amount I get in cash over to my RDF!

    Dxxx
