    Hi all. 3/10 no spend days for me please. Hoping to drastically increase that now considering I have very little until payday in a week!

    Today was a NSD for me, so I'm now at 6.

    I'm very proud of myself for managing to avoid the barista coffee temptation at work 👌 normally I'd have one every day that I'm in, so would've cost me £10.40 over the last week. Plus I quite often pay to park at the closer carparks on Tuesdays and Fridays, so that's another £5 saved so far 🙌 it's no wonder I ran up such debt last year!
    Make £2025 in 2025 #18 - £569.66/£2025
    1p savings challenge #32 £24.85/£667.95

    March - 0/15 NSD, £189.29/£168.75 made, PAD £72/£186, £184.87/£400 GC

    Total debts Jan 1st £11706.68 😭
    Jan 29th £11354.92

    Mar 1st £11015.30
