    hi all, new to this, so just gettng my head around it! I have set up £5 per day (well, on weekdays!) to go in to a separate account that I don't touch. Am I on the right lines here? It's basically what I used to spend on coffee every day and now don't.

    Should I be putting it toward my mortgage or a bill instead do you think?

  • Morning, yesterday and today PAD: £6.28

    Hi @davidm29 and welcome! That sounds great, I think we all send our PADs to various places, I send them to a loan and credit card, so whatever suits you! A savings account could work well if you are looking to save, or mortgage would always be a good one! Congrats on the daily savings from not having coffee!
