Its Guinness time any day of the week.
It got me thinking that with losing 8 lbs in weight and not going out for weekly meals/theatre/pubs/petrol etc,how much am I saving and was quite shocked.
Over a month my savings are in the region of £250 pm which will be going on bringing my couple of Credit Cards up to date ... not that I`m behind but the ability of paying off quicker.
Anyone else noticed any financial benefits or are you in fact spending more via on line shopping ?
 
Yes. As I have an office job then it’s working from home for everyone aside from the facilities team who are sending post out. I’m not spending money to go in to London and neither is it £2.50 on a baguette every day for lunch. Then there’s no pub which was regular about twice a week. I’m certainly saving money.

I have about £250 on flights for what was Italy v Wales in the Euros (plus some travel around.) It’s highly unlikely that I can fly so there’s hopefully money to come back if the flights are cancelled. I intend to holiday it if we can fly as I’m having an awful 2020 otherwise.
 
I would say with not following City home and away £600 pm I would be still better off on 80% off my wages.
 
Costing me over 2k a month in profit as all the football and nags are cancelled. Trying to not let it bother me as there are people alot worse off out there atm.
 
I'm sticking a few bob away each week. In time, I'm going to put in a bid for this two up two down....




It's always been a dream of mine to listen to Taylor Swift while submerged in my private swimming pool.
