Running Total (based on €750 a month) : -€225 (with 3/4 of the month to go!)This looks a bit rough, especially as we will need to buy a 2nd 12 trip climbing wall entry the next time we go, but then we should be good for a while, and the bulk food should keep our grocery costs down! As always, I am an optimist!

When I started this blog I was on quite a tight budget, I was on carers allowance and C was looking for work. Our monthly budget was €750 a month after rent.
Circumstances have changed now, but our lifestyle hasn't so we still live pretty cheaply and I've decided to continue the blog.

We were never really trying to be cheap, it was more that we found living sustainbly to work out cheaper.

This blog isn't about how to save money, more about reflections on how trying to be conscious has led to money savings for me.
