I have always done my own hair don’t care for extras like nails and eyelashes being done professionally so my own costs are fairly low. Having three children means shopping for food can be costly but we mostly shop for the cheaper unbranded products where we can and shop around to get the best deals. We still get to go on holiday to centre parcs once a year and a few small caravan trips by selling things on Vinted and mostly being thrifty with our own clothes and toys. Never been huge spenders and never cared for brands or fashion so it hasn’t made much difference to my day to day life I’ve always saved money where I can.
Yes it is so good to shop around you can save so much, I hope you get to travel when you have planned sounds incredible!
That you Catherine, I really appreciate your comment
Well when you already didn’t have it to spend then the only thing you can do is watch how you spend what little you do have.
Hello Jacqueline,
The thing is Gas bills is very high just to warm up my apartment to keep warm. My electric bills is also very costly just to have my lights on or using TV Ect Ect. And food shopping is very high price. So it’s difficult to save money and we pay tax and other thing for living. We’ll, yes Jacqueline we normally don’t have and we all have to watch or money and our spending.
Thank you Jacqueline for your positive response
You’re welcome David
I live a pretty simple low cost and thrifty life on the whole anyway so it’s not hard to adjust to harder times.
I don’t like eating out, I’ll buy cheap and second hand clothes. I’m writing this on a years old iPhone 11 😂
The FIAT money system, energy nonsense and high taxes all need to end for it to improve.

Hopefully I should of saved enough by next year September.
Actually the only difficulty I have is my Gas high cost and electric bills. But I won’t let that stop me from saving.
