Hey there,
Can you believe it's officially spring?! Spring is the time of year where many of us start to plan outings, events, trips, and so on.
What I'd like to know is - do you have an entertainment of 'fun budget'?
While having fun should definitely be a part of your budget, it should also fit into your spending goals and shouldnโt cause you to overspend and get into debt.
This week on the blog, I'm talking all about practical ways to keep your entertainment budget frugal this spring, without sacrificing fun and the things you like to enjoy. Read it here.
Also, here's my post on how to pay down your debt and achieve financial freedom with the debt snowball method in case you missed it.
If you have time to listen to this month's episode of the My Debt Epiphany Audio Show, I'll be sharing some practical ways that my family and I have adjusted our budget and found savings during inflation.
โCheck out Episode 3 here for tips on saving money during inflation.
