August Budget

July was a bit of a spendy month! I ended up spending lots of money with The Body Shop, Studio and Shein. I also had some ASDA and Amazon gift cards to use, and sold some bits so I had some extra money to see me through last month!

Income: £1,362.85

Money in account: £1,808.51

Bills

Phone: £26.13

Rent: £80

General Savings: £50

Christmas Savings: £50

Credit card: £74.75

Cash Budget

I've decided I'm just going to try and use cash this month! I massively overspent on online orders and takeaways in July so I'm trying to resist the urge to spend by using cash. I have withdrawn £300 and hopefully I don't waste it all in the corner shop like I usually do!

Birthdays

It's time to pay for Charlie's party! I also need to buy cake, balloons and maybe a helium tank for the balloons. I'm budgeting £250 (including £180 for his venue) but I probably won't need that much! Especially as my blue light card means 10% off in ASDA...

Salon

I forgot my holiday wax appointment falls after August pay day so that £23 I mentioned in my July budget is actually for my August budget!

So my overall budget for August is £605 including bills and savings. Hopefully I can spend less than that! I'm hoping to not use my credit card this month too. Wish me luck!

Until next time,
