Getting FIREd up 😀

The interest rate on my LISA has been put up again, so the balance in there will now be earning 95p/day in interest - this is starting to look like real money!

It just feels silly at the moment. I’m not sure I know the value of anything anymore. I’ve aged prematurely into someone who thinks “That’s expensive, I remember when it was just £1..” 😂

Well done one the Sainsburys Christmas challenge. I’m nearly there. Shamelessly helped by buying one item of clothing for 20 and getting 750 points. Said item will be returned this week as I know from previous times they don’t deduct the points back!  Have a look at eBay power hour as well if you are after bonus points. (If you need something that is)!

So, this week's money-saving/making actions were:
* £26.79 received in interest 😀😀😀
* £5.65 received from Prolific
* £5.00 Amazon gift card received from the forum about savings I was on which has closed. Apparently they were (very) delayed in sending them out because of the period of mourning following the death of the Queen - I thought I'd already received the final payment, so that was a nice surprise!
* £12.50 cashed-in Nectar points (including £10 on a litre of Baileys which I have tucked away for the Christmas holidays 😋)
* Raised a claim for untracked cashback 

Not a bad week, considering I've done very little 👍 The interest will be lower next month, as I've spent quite a lot during November (all planned and budgeted for), but finally the comment in my signature is starting to actually be correct!

Earning interest is nice. My new AVCs (2 months old) were actually in profit this week too!

Well done SC!

Thank you 😀

LOL, it's 12.36pm and I've only just clocked that it's Black Friday (there's been so many weeks of build-up that I wasn't conscious of the actual date - but it does make sense of all the emails and notifications I've been getting this morning 🤦‍♀️). I am so NOT a shopper 🤣!

I honestly thought it was last week with the amount of offers I was getting 😂
