@Katie20Percent Get one from Next, they're solid and ours has survived kids spilling all kinds of stuff on it, jumping on it, sleeping on it, dog laying on it, me climbing on it to catch spiders. Basically everything
We pay a guy 30 quid to clean it every year and it looks and feels new again
@Katie20Percent Make sure it fits through the front door or gate for back door. Measure the area of the sofa you like at home, just to see how it takes the space and how it works.
🚨 The Bank of England has raised interest rates to 5% 🚨
Here are some of the pros and cons:
✅ your savings rates may increase
❌ mortgage and other debt payments may increase
✅ might lower inflation
❌ it may be harder to get a bank loan and/or a mortgage
Reflecting on how proud I am of my personal finance journey 😊
I grew up in 1 of the poorest neighbourhoods in Sheffield, my parents were in debt my whole childhood & I was earning minimum wage up until 3 years ago.
