Thanks for your suggestions! However the difficulty being that it's all automated by Monzo! I saw the challenge at the start of the year and thought I'd give it a try and have done well so far, but this month it's £67 worth of savings over the month and will be more again next month! I think part of my issue is that I save specific amounts to various pots and this is effectively "unassigned" and eats into my spending money each month and now feels at a point where I'll have to allocate more to "fun" money (and less to specific savings) to account for it!
This morning I have updated my spreadsheet and shuffled all money to the correct accounts as was feeling a bit lost as I wasn't on top of it! Instantly feel better!
I do have a few things on this week, including a boat party with a friend on Thursday night - although I've already bought the ticket. Last night me and OH went to see a wedding venue, but don't think it's the one for us! Would be lovely if the weather is right, but we live in England and I don't think I can rely on the weather! However, we still love the first place we visited! So wedding planning is slowly continuing in the background! However, no offers on either my house or OH's flat, so something else that is slowly continuing in the background! No bad thing as allows us extra time to save up money!Debt as at 5 June 2023 - £15,600.89
Current debt - £5,555.00
Total paid off - £10,045.89 (64% paid off)0
