Hey there! Thanks for your patience for this week’s newsletter!
Yesterday turned out to be a manic day so instead of stressing myself out to get it done, I thought we’d just move the newsletter to today for this week only.
April has been dubbed ‘Awful April’ with all of the bill rises and our money now having to stretch even further. Over the next few days, it’s worth spending some time going through your recent bank statements to see if there’s any bills you can reduce. ⚡️
For the likes of energy, broadband and mobile phone bills, use a comparison site like Uswitch to check what other deals are available and if you’re able to switch.
You could even search for Uswitch on TopCashback and click through from there to get between £10-£125 cashback! 💸
Oh, and if you’re looking to reduce the amount you spend on food, you’re going to like this next bit below…
🍬 10+ Ways To Get Free Or Cheap Food
Food shopping probably takes up a large chunk of your budget each month.
And you can save money on your groceries by being organised with meal planning and finding budget friendly recipes.
But there’s also a bunch of ways you can get free or cheap food! I’ve pulled together over 10 different ways you can bag some free or discounted food to help you save money.
💭 Guess the Riddle
It’s shorter than the rest, but when you’re satisfied, you bring it up. What am I?
The answer is at the end of this newsletter.
🏡 £5 Bonus From Sprive
If you have a mortgage, you can use the Sprive app to help chip away at your mortgage.
They have a ‘Shop with Sprive’ feature, which is where you can buy gift cards to pay for your shopping and earn cash rewards to put towards your mortgage. And when you buy your first gift card, you’ll actually get a £5 bonus!
It’s free to use Sprive and I’ve used the app for years - it really opened my eyes to how much I could save in time or interest on my mortgage.
Here’s how to get your £5 bonus:
Tap the ‘Get Sprive app’ button below (it’s free!)
Sign up to Sprive and when prompted, enter code: CHLOE25
Make your first ‘Shop with Sprive’ purchase
You’ll get your £5 bonus added to your Sprive account to pay towards your mortgage
♻️ Get £5 For Recycling Your Beauty Empties
Never throw away your empty beauty products because you can actually turn them into money!
I’ve been using this recycling scheme to earn £5 worth of LOOKFANTASTIC points for every 5 eligible empty skincare, makeup or fragrance empties I recycle.
I’ve written a step-by-step guide to using recycle:me so you can start getting paid for your empties too!
🌸 Travel Tech & Packing Deals
If you’re lucky enough to jetting off during the April holidays, here’s some Amazon picks you might love.
✈️ Packing cubes
I swear by packing cubes when travelling, especially when you’re travelling with hand luggage only. These packing cubes are the ones I have and they have an extra zip to help compress the packing cube and save you even more space when packing. Bonus: tick the ‘Apply 18% voucher’ box to get 18% off.
⚡️Travel adaptor
You can charge multiple devices at once with this handy universal travel adaptor. It’s compatible with multiple plug types and has 3 x USB-C ports and 2 x USB ports. It’s currently 15% off.
👙 Swimsuit with cover up
I bought this swimsuit in January for Australia and loved it! It has a built in cover up/skirt but it has a little tie bit, which makes it look like a mini sarong which is v v v cute! I actually felt kinda confident wearing this and I’ve never felt like that in a swimsuit! I got size XL. It’s currently 8% off.
✈️ Changes To Passport Fees
Passport fees are increasing from the 10th April. Here’s the upcoming price increases:
- UK online applications: from £88.50 to £94.50 for adults and from £57.50 to £61.50 for children
