Giving every £ a job

Don't forget to go through cashback sites when booking holibobs, if you're spending larger amounts you can get a decent few quid back towards your next trip

That sounds like a good plan! We have a "Holiday pot" for our main trip, then the "Joint fun" accounts tends to pick up the tab - or at least contribute towards - weekends away and things like that. As and when we have another proper "holiday" to account for in a year, we ring-fence the money in to the joint fun account for a while to cover that - with our personal spends taking over the cost of the random trips, days out etc.

Sounds like a good plan having the different holiday pots. You should be able to enjoy your retirement guilt free

I love it when an idea is being pondered and people chip in with their thoughts. I've picked up some brilliant tips on these diaries. 

It's fabulous isn't it SA.  I also love the support and encouragement people give and there's never any judgement even if we've had a wobble or done something daft.

Cashback adds up nicely.  I've "earned" £1700 in total from £co over the years that Ive been using it.  I check for discounts on my blue light card and got 10% off next year's ferry costs.

@Alchemilla - we are going back to Guernsey which seems to have become one of our favourite places.  Mind you with views like this from our window it's hardly surprising.
