    Day 9/12 yesterday but not one today. Spent £7.50 of my share of the bill for an xxl large vegan pizza with 2 sides. Was delicious and got to spend a good few hours with close friends so it was worth it as a one off.

    Been a bit quiet lately due to issues with ID fraud :( it's such a stress i've had letters through from debt collection agency as this person is accruing debt in my name. It's all very scared & frustrating. The worst part is that no one seems willing to help. I went to the police and they said it wasnt a crime (not convinced). I just feel so helpless. I want to stop this have no idea how & as i say it's all falling on deaf ears.


    Hiya - I have just renewed my home and contents insurance last week, and they mentioned it covered ID fraud. If you have insurance it might be an idea to ring and ask if you are covered. Tbh it is something I never even considered might be included, or I would ever have thought to ask about, but it was, and reading your post just made me remember.

    Yes. You could count it.
    The other way to do it it is to exclude your DS’s driving lessons from your counted spends.
    ie I exclude my yoga and my physio as for me they are planned & budgeted spends.
    Dident realise that driving lessons had gone up so much.
    Mind you it is nearly 10 years since my DS learnt.
    Blimey that’s scary.


    Good plan, so that would make Saturday 3/10 :)
