Just had to put a food shop on the credit card, fed up!

[whatsausername]

We don’t get paid until next Thursday. I’d ran out of essentials like coffee, hand wash, toothpaste, chips etc. Needed the usual packed lunch stuff too. £78 in Asda. I have £82 in the account until payday but need to keep it in as direct debits due day before payday.

I just feel bleugh. We both work full time and having to put a weekly food shop on a credit card is just soul destroying.

anyone else feel like this?

I was referring to the stealing comment.

Those dive bars aren't soap... Just moisturising bars.
They don't clean...

I've spent most of my life doing side hustles.

That’s handy /well timed

what happened @whatsausername

We pay for everything with credit card, even things like council tax. We get points which add up to about £150 a year and our money stays in a ( crap) easy access savings account until we need to pay the credit card bill ( always in full so don't pay interest) so we earn a tiny bit of money on that too ! No shame in doing that ...just play the system but be disciplined and you can even come out with a ,small, profit !

@Spiderx we do the same. Everything on cc but it gives us extra points , paid off in full each month.

Like what please? Thanks

Maybe she accepted donations from gullible MNers...

Working in a petrol station, touring the local pubs and Brixton prison officers club selling seafood. Cat feeding, dog walking, leaflet delivering and overtime at my full time job when it was available. Working in Woolworth's as a Saturday girl before I left school. In this way I was able to buy my home which I could not have done otherwise.

So, second jobs or part-time jobs, not really 'hustles'. 😁

Watch your feelings, they are giving you a warning. Youre affecting the Law of Attraction. It willkeep obringing you things you dont want. He more you push against, the more yuck youll receive. Try and find little nice bis in amongt all he 'crap' ... thats ho it works. Always lok for the bright bits of life.

I believe the word has a variety of meanings including working energetically.

All of those are simply jobs though, they're not hustles.

OK. what do you mean by the term?

I mean that the term 'job" covers those scenarios.
It's admirable to take on on extra jobs, of course.

My EDF was in too much credit so they sent me a cheque for £148! Winner winner!

So if I manifest a nice piece of fish it will replace the mince?

I’ve been trying to manifest a lottery win for years. Still trying

Youll have both

I took advice from the posters on here and I’ve went to Aldi for a change. Going to make that my supermarket of choice for the month and see if it makes a difference running up to payday!

👍👍
just run past and dont look at that middle aisle 😁

Can't DH and DS's haircuts wait until payday??

coffee - Stockwells at Tesco @£1.15 will tide you over for the time being.
hand wash - a bar of soap would suffice
toothpaste - Sainsburys own costs 30p
chips - buy a 2.5kg bag and make homemade wedges or chips in the oven

Avoid the middle aisles. That way lies ruin 🤣

Large HP Brown Sauce £4 in Tesco - £2 in Poundland!
