Money detox
Start your money workout
Take your saving to the limit by getting strict with all your spending habits for a month.
Decide what you can give up or find a cheaper alternative for, like making packed lunches instead of eating out, and commit to saving this money instead.

How to work out
Step 1
Look at your spending habits and see what you could do without for a month.
Step 2
Save the money in a safe place every time you resist temptation. Keep the card where you can see it, like on the fridge, as a daily reminder.
Step 3
Colour in a piece of fruit every time you make a saving, to track your progress. And when you’re ready, try another workout that suits your circumstances.
