  • Afternoon, PAD of £242.14 today, my savings from my payday to a couple of places!
  • £45.25 for me today, although I did buy a bike on credit today, which seems counter productive to my goals but I am going to pay it off as fast as possible and it will save me petrol and is going to help with my fitness goals but I feel the need to confess as my debt has gone up today, I think I will still end the month a few hundred pound down though so that's my justification to myself!

    That sounds like a good investment rather than an increase in debt @DiaryofanotherSaver

    The extra fitness and the reduction in fuel costs will soon add up
