100 Day Spending Ban Challenge – Week #6

ByLisa Jayne 



So I’m now onto week six of my 100 day spending ban, and I’m now approaching the half way mark. As I mentioned last week I’m feeling a bit deflated with it all. Despite doing fairly well during my spending ban with not buying any beauty products, and getting myself a job, I’ve still not managed to save anything. There is a slight upside though that next week will be my first proper pay day from my new job, meaning that I can put away some of my wages and finally get my savings account started!




Apart from having another week of not saving any money I was fairly sensible this week in working out how much money I needed to save every month. Now that I’m a ‘grown up’ and have a proper job I’m starting to pay all things related to my car – insurance, tax, MOT’s etc. Previously I’ve had help thanks to my parents and my savings account, but now that’s got quite low. So (with help from my mumma) I worked out my yearly spend on my car and what I need to put away each month to save for it so it’s not a huge chunk of my payslip gone!




So although I’m not getting anywhere with my savings I feel like I’m getting somewhere with my thoughts and attitude towards money. Bring on pay day next week so I can make some real savings!




See how I’ve got on in other weeks –

    The Ojon Rare Blend Oil is something I’ve heard about in the blogosphere for the longest time. It’s been on my wishlist for well over a year now but even though I’m a self confessed hair oil lover, I just couldn’t see myself parting with £30 for one. It wasn’t until my boyfriend’s parents gave…

    Recently I blogged about how I wanted my hair to be in a better condition. After years of dying it and using heat, my hair is in a pretty terrible condition. I’m desperate for my hair to grow, and a friend told me my hair has no chance of growing if I continue to abuse…

    After Sundays #bbloggers on the discussion of storage, I’ve seen and heard great things about how you other bloggers store your make-up etc. Since then I’ve changed my make-up storage around, so I thought I’d show you all some pictures of my storage.   I recently bought these multi-drawers from WHSmith, which I keep all…

    I’m on a roll today, uploading a blog post AND a new video! This Christmas break was definitely needed. I’ve found myself addicted to fake tan recently, especially with these horrible bleak grey days. So a little bit of colour perks me up and makes me feel like I’ve been on a lovely holiday! My…
