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?5
-
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 sellingCrazycatlady2 said: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?Making the debt go down and savings go up
