perhaps you being so organised is part of being organised in your finances? One usually follows the other

Maybe you're right. My structure, focus and concentration on my finances may have helped me with other things and i havent even realised them yet.daisy_1571 said:perhaps you being so organised is part of being organised in your finances? One usually follows the other

I spent £25.01 on fuel and £54.41 on my weekly food shop today. This is more than usual as im hoping it will last me until after xmas day now, baring a small top up of the essentials maybe next week before xmas day. Also i have got a few extra things as its xmas and have treated myself to some things i wouldnt normally so thats why its more than normal this week.
I have also withdrawn the last of the money i need to put into Xmas and birthday cards today. So i have taken the £130.00 i have withdrawn as cash today out of my savings/emergency account, which leaves a balance of £406.43
