Time to start a fresh.

That is amazing work jade, well done. Have you put in place how you are going to allocate this extra that you will have this month?. You really seem to be on the ball with these surveys and other stuff

Most of it will be going back to paying for the car tbh

Thank you, I'm honestly surprised it's that much!

haha haha cars are fab until they break. I need to get a clip for mine has the clip that attaches the handbrake cable to the car has snapped and I’ve tried my best to find a way to fix it back in place but to no avail. I have seen some just cable tie them back in place but it needs to be sorted really. I will put on my to do list to collect from Halfords on way home tomorrow.

It’s crazy how much the surveys and extra you are doing have built up

Morning, that’s a great amount. Well done. 

If you are going to open another account, I have a starling account, you can make goals (which are like sub accounts) so if make money on surveys etc you could transfer it to the goal. If it’s in your goal account you can’t spend and it doesn’t show on your balance of main account (unless you get statement) but you can easily transfer it over for when you want the money. 

I use the goals for presents and holidays. I’m not sure if other banks do this but it would be worth a look.

Morning all! I've been on and off sleeping for the past hour or so! I'm going into work half hour early today to make up for leaving half hour early Friday. Which I don't really mind, it means I can sit in nice and quiet for half hour as I'll be the only one there. The girls I work with are both off today so hopefully it doesn't get busy! I can ask the guys from the other warehouse to come help me if it does get busy though.

Hi @jadewest94  Have been catching up on your progress so far - looks like you’re making really positive changes as well as tackling that debt.  Must say I am incredibly jealous of your survey earnings!!  I’m trying to build up my EF from taking surveys, but I’ve not added to it for a while.  I currently use Swagbucks and Prolific - any tips from the survey queen?!
