No Spend September Update

ByLisa Jayne 


After being the type of person who’s always poor and can’t ever save money I decided it was time to start No Spend September. Being absolutely hopeless at spending bans, and completely failing at the 100 day ban I did before I decided a 30 day ban would be a lot easier. I’m now over half way through No Spend September, so I thought it would be the best time to update on how I’m doing.




I’m actually really surprised at how well I’m doing, I’ve managed to not buy any beauty products! My favourite Kerastase Nutrive Nectar Thermique has actually ran out and it’s killing me not being able to buy another one, but it’s making me finally use up some old products I’ve got lying around in my drawers for a change. When it comes to saving money I’m not doing so well, I haven’t been paid yet this month but once I am I’m going to put some away into savings and hopefully will keep this up.




I’m feeling a bit more positive about saving money and I’m starting to realise that maybe I don’t need to buy so many beauty products for a change! Let’s hope I can keep this up for the rest of the spending ban…

Valentine’s Day Gift Guide #1

	ByLisa Jayne					
											
					



	

		
Now it’s February everyone’s focus has switched from getting fit and being healthy, to all things Valentine’s Day. I find that Valentine’s Day gifts can often get a little samey, with the usual chocolates and flowers still proving to be popular. Although this year I’ve spotted a couple of different gifts, and thought I’d share them with you in case…

Although it’s been awhile since I’ve now finished education, a whole two years in fact, I a thought I’d share a great service that everyone should know about – Campus Book Rentals. Campus Book Rentals is the perfect service if you need several text books for your course, but really don’t want to spend the hundreds involved in the cost of buying them. Thinking…
