This time of the year is a bit tough for me finance wise because all of my big annual car expenses seem to come all at once making September a bit tricky! I love my car and always shell out for anything it needs to keep it road worthy but it’s amazing how costs can suddenly build up when you…
It might be true that the most wonderful time of the year is coming, but with the amount of planning, lists, shopping, organising and everything else you have to do, it’s no wonder that so many of us feel frazzled before December even hits.
