Survey fatigue is a real thing But it's nice when the money comes in! "Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do". Eoin McGee0

So I used chase for about three weeks. Then I have had this week off cos my account didn't really have enough to move across and I was waiting on survey money etc to tide me through. I've found budgeting this week a lot harder. Not as focused on what I have spent where. So back to chase on Friday I think.
I was sending food, petrol and activities money to it each Friday with the aim of spending less than I put in and also gaining cashback on what I did spend.
