#157 The no-spend Lockdown challenge

With the UK back under a strict lockdown there are once again a number of ways we can't spend our cash. It's frustrating, but it also makes it the perfect time to give a no-spend challenge a go. Though you still need to cover essentials like bills, debts and food, the idea is to cut back on everything else. In return you'll not only see a healthier bank balance, but hopefully a greater understanding of where your money goes each month. I'm joined by Claire Roach from Money Saving Central to talk more about how to keep motivated, tricks to keep track and more. * Please do leave a review and rating if this saves you money. * Claire's guide to No Spend Challenges on Money Saving Central https://moneysavingcentral.co.uk/no-spend-challenge ABOUT CASH CHATS Cash Chats is presented by money blogger and broadcaster Andy Webb.

#156 The Brexit trade deal and your money

We finally have a trade deal with the EU. It's taken four and a half years to get to this point, but it's good news whether you voted to remain or leave as "No Deal" would have been a nightmare. Of course, Covid is going to make the transition even harder, so it'll be difficult to see the true impact of a lot of this while that's still going on, and possibly even longer as we work our way out of it. Particularly for things like savings and house prices. But we do know some of the immediate impacts. Now the trade deal is a huge document, so I'm sure there are still elements that haven't been picked up yet, but I've gone through lots of the news reports to find out what the deal means for your finances from January 1st. * Please do leave a review and rating if this saves you money. * ABOUT CASH CHATS Cash Chats is presented by money blogger and broadcaster Andy Webb.
