Not much to update from the shopping other than we had a lovely day together and even randomly bumped into my sister at the shopping centre.
I bought some things that I needed such as a replacement mascara but I also picked a new bow tie up for the dog. It wasn’t necessary but it was cute lol.Anyway, not too spendy all told. A film now before bed and a glass of wine.LMD xLife gets in the way...PADding is addictive...Saving's better than spending...My savings diary - Now for a healthier, wealthier me2025 1p challenge #41 | Cash envelope challenge #01 | SPC #017EF £1000/£1000 | Sabbatical £3677/£60004 -
Morning, I spent less than I thought yesterday and now only 5 days to pay day so I have sent £23 to CC7 this morning taking me to £4500.
No plans for us today, we are just doing chores around the house. It will be a NSD for me as a result. Tomorrow I am in the office and meeting some colleagues for lunch so a low spend day there.
No updates in terms of surveys, I may have a look later but most of the day I will be busy.
Have a great day!

I had £10 in my purse so I have popped this in my week 10 envelope for the challenge.

Love a round number! Your PADing is so inspiring. I’m going to be trying to spend on a zero based budget which is frankly terrifying but will also be trying to save money here and there so will try and do this also. It seems like small amounts but they all add up! Have a lovely day 😊LittleMissDetermined said:Morning, I spent less than I thought yesterday and now only 5 days to pay day so I have sent £23 to CC7 this morning taking me to £4500.

The small amounts really do add up! I try to budget £1 a day for padding in my monthly planned spending but then add any extras. At the moment it's close to pay day so I am adding more as I know I have extra in the budget now.CL21 said:
