Reply With QuoteBy not drinking 3 nights a week I'm saving around £60 per week. Added to the £175 saving on cigarettes, that's a total of £12,240 per year.Originally Posted by Pat Vegas
Fúcking hell, can that be right?
the following purchases will be eliminated
Cigarettes, energy drinks/coffees, I will drink the free **** at work,
bring my own lunch.
I have purchased my food shopping in bulk.
If only I can scam away to get to work for free. Cycling is a little bit too far and would involve dangerous routes and initial expense.
I plan to live as cheap as possible next year. no holidays, no guitars, pay some bills. I need to build up cash for my big year of 2019.

Well when I stopped smoking proper a while back I used to buy a packet a day before stopping. I never seemed to be any better off.
Think of what you could do with that 12k Sir C. You'd be saving so much you can start drinking and smoking again.
Must have saved a couple of grand a month by giving up the sniff?
I'm starting to envisage Sir C's evenings these days and it's making me a bit sad.

He dresses up as Alastair Sim - that would be cool
True enough; probably more like £700 a month, I reckon. That's another £8,400 a year. I'm rich, rich I tell you!
That's how I am trying to look at things.
Instead of if I could make an extra '£20 here' look at it the otherway and reduce £20 from my spending.
Lightweight!
Given up on lottery tickets and going to try and stop smoking....again
