Another post for today but thought I would just give a quick update.
Today was payday. Nothing particularly exciting since I knew my pay would be the same as usual.
I paid my catalogue bill. This is the first payment with a BNPL item added to my minimum payment because I didn't manage to pay it off (a carpet). I am a platinum customer so I get 10% of my minimum payment back as rewards to spend, however, BNPL items are not included in this. I only received £6.xx rewards for a £127 payment. It's better than nothing but I'm used to getting 10% of my minimum payment back.
I'm waiting on my credit cards updating. CC2 is first then it's cc1. I always count down the days until my statement updates so I can make a payment straight away - less interest, right? If I had extra money I would make the equivalent of two payments but I don't...
I need to buy a wedding present - gift vouchers from John Lewis - this pay period. The wedding is in a few weeks, but only hubby is going. It's at an expensive hotel and I can't drink anyway, plus I will be at home with SG. That reminds me, I need to buy their card in too.
I'll be posting some Christmas presents next week. I'll post them second class so it's cheaper.
I introduced hubby to Swagbucks, I sent him a referral. I've been watching a lot of videos but hubby likes to search. I'm not completely sure how that works so I've rarely used it. I now have 1162SB so slowly getting there.
Hubby and I have agreed to save our catalogue rewards for presents next year, like we did for a while this year.
Tomorrow my automatic deposit of £10 will be transferred to savings. It's not much but it's something. I was thinking about increasing it by a few percent next year but when I look at my credit card I change my mind.
Apart from paying bills, today was a NSD.
I think that's all for now.
