Free thifty challenge & best New Year sales


Hello,

Hope you had a good festive break, and you're looking forward to 2025.

As always, there will be no extreme ‘New Year, New You’ gubbins on the blog because you’re loved exactly how you are, but we WILL be doing a brand new and free Jump Start Challenge this January.

Week One is Simple Self Care Week. There's something small to try every day, steering things gently in a positive direction through the month (even if we're feeling a bit skint).

Look out for a slightly different format this time. The posts and prompts will drop once for the week, rather than daily, so you can find them all in the same place. The final week in January will be a Tenner Week budgeting challenge, so look out for that too.

I've also rounded up some of the best New Year sales and bargains for you, because that's where the biggest discounts and deals turn up. Have a peek.
