I prefer cash, the interest rate is too high on a credit card; or fees on a bank card are too high!

I vary a bit from cash to card and back again. I think the main thing is just being conscious of what you are spending regardless of what what you do it. When i work with my card i often transfer the odd pennies to my savings each day so if i have £54.61 i will move the 61p or if i’m feeling rich maybe even the £4.61 works better for me than cash because if i have it in my purse i won’t save it….

I’m surprised at how much we save – before we were regularly going over budget.

Thank you for this post. I’m going to suggest it to my boyfriend (we’re not very saving savvy!) and hopefully we’ll begin to see growth in our house/wedding fund!

Oops ‘prefer cash is what I meant. Excuse the typo error.

Definitely refer cash. It is easier to stick to a budget when you have only cash to use rather than using a card then being tempted to spend more.
