    Question for you all….if you buy yourself something with money you got for birthday/Christmas do you class as a spend or not for this challenge? 
    I would not class that as a spend, as the money had come to you as a present and not from your normal income, so it was extra over and above your normal money. I would, personally only count spends that had come from my pension, DH's wages and money I had made from surveys or selling

    Thankyou, that’s what I was leaning towards. I bought a diary/planner….it’s pretty and got my eye on a few other bits 😂
