Its time to do a low spend challenge - finances in midlife

[@JamieB-g4i]

One month at a time is very sensible and reducing or stopping online shopping all together would be a big win!

[@rachell4444]

Tiny steps and build on them is the plan.

Hi Rachel, spotted a comment of yours on another creators video. Looking forward to following your journey! I’m also aiming to cut my spending and am low income too

[@rachell4444]

Thank you. Let me know how you get in cutting your spending and keep watching to see my progress

[@malinlongva]

Good luck, and thank you for sharing! I'm feeling very inspired, and will go for something similar

[@rachell4444]

You can do it!

Hello fellow allotmenteer! 😀 I hope the repairs go well and your knee is recovering well. Wishing you all the best on your low spend journey this year and great to break down into chunks and have inventories of toiletries etc

[@rachell4444]

Thank you. Hope we both have success on our allotments this year.

[@frugalfull]

@rachell4444 thank you 😊 last year I couldn't do much due to a broken wrist so it'll be lovely to get back into it this year

[@rachell4444]

@frugalfull Yes you'll have renewed motivation.

[@DianeMoore]

Quite the challenge you’ve set for yourself, Rachel! You’ll have some helpful updates to post, I’m sure

[@rachell4444]

Yes. To say I’m nervous is an understatement but I can only try. And there will be updates to hold me accountable .

God, I loathe shopping - clothes and groceries. I always take a list with me - just using the notes app on my phone. It makes the experience a lot quicker and less stressful.

[@rachell4444]

I definitely think if I took a list then I would do less impulse spending.

[@cynthia57169]

Hello! I suggest you put your shopping list in your phone under “notes” or “journal “ or whatever you’ve got.

[@rachell4444]

That’s a great idea. I’ll try that. Thanks Cynthia
