Did I really need to buy deer food?! My 'concentrating on saving' diary

Had a good month so far (unlikely to be able to add any more before the end of October so posting now 😉), managed to save £302.99 🙌 I definitely won't be able to repeat that figure next month so I'm pleased to have a decent start!'Happiness is not a destination but the journey you walk every day'

I've got the savings to where I wanted them now and am saving for my debt neutral fund 😁
I am happy with building the DNF - if I don't use them for the very old debts then at least the money will be available should I need other things or just as savings for a rainy day 🙌'Happiness is not a destination but the journey you walk every day'
