Saving for a fresh start

I'm currently in the process of buying a house and I'll hopefully be moving into my new house on 13th Dec :)

As we all probably know, buying a house is very expensive and I need to save as much money as possible by the time I move in. I'm buying a new build so need everything from carpets to curtains!

Inspired by the fab book, How I Lived a Year on Just a Pound a Day by Kath Kelly, I'm trying to think how I can live for as little as possible over the next few weeks. Obviously I have costs I can't avoid like petrol to get to work, but where possible I'll try to avoid spending on everything else. I don't think I'll manage £1 a day but I'll try!

I'm going to document my progress on the blog. I'm starting with £423.21 in my savings pot, I'm aiming for £1000.

I'm starting tomorrow so wish me luck!
