We need to cut our financial spending this year, so from this week we really have to cut back/make some savings. Anyone want to join in by checking in on a regular basis with what you've done to cut back/how it's going?
To start with I've sent myself a food budget and really intend to stick to it. Also, will only buy toiletries and cleaning products when I know the price is good. I'm going to compile a list of free/cheap ideas for days out. Next month we're going to change our energy tariff as it comes to an end.
I need to take DD into town this week, so will need to just concentrate on getting what sees really needs and not having expensive coffee and cake!
We're going to have a massive credit card bill next month for us, and also know things need to be done to the car to get it through it's MOT, so this will help keep me focused.
