Please do more of these, I love seeing what other people buy on a weekly basis
I will!! they're my favourite too 😍
A coffee a day keeps the blues away .. really enjoyed how realistic this was! Starting a new job and going back to 9-5 mon to fri, I would probably have treated myself to a coffee or something every day too lol. Your spending didn't seem too bad at all actually, utilities/bills aside which can't be helped.
hahahaha my new life motto 😅
Love this Ella. I love tracking every single expense, please keep making videos like this I love seeing every single expense. I guess we can live sad lives revolving around money together
HAHAHAHA I LOVE YOU
🤣
Love this!! an eye opener to add up our spending. Love that you are so money savvy but not tight! you know how to treat yourselves.
That ornament cup thingie on the shelf next to you looks like a set of dentures lol 🤗
hahahaha I see it too
I would suggest for iron if you haven't talked to your doctor about an iron infusion ask them. It helped get my iron up and stay up for months. If you aren't eligible then Iron Melts are also available at woolies and so easy on the tummy and usually $11 I think
i'll definitely chat to my doctor about it! thank you ☺️
I love your vids!! But I definitely miss the little vlog snippets of the things you buy🥲
Thanks lovely! will definitely add the vlog snippets next time ☺️
Thank you for being transparent and realistic in your video! I agree that tracking allows you to reflect on the value of expenses. My drink of choice is soda which sometimes can easily become a daily expense 😅
Mine also eekk
you're so welcome!! everyone has their thing 😂
Love..your previous what I spend in a week video is how I found ur channel😁
how good 🥰🥰
Wow Ella, in the words of Lucy, “do you have a life?” 🤣 LOVE U XXX
hahahaha no i'm just a big loser who tracks their expenses xx
You need to seek help for your money obsession
I don't live in Adelaide, but I love watching videos of someone tracking every single expense (including coffee). So keep them coming 🤣💜
hahaha thanks gal 💗💗
I'd like more videos like this. I've had 10 no-buy days in January so far. I am doing a low-spend 2023
wow good on you!! that's amazing
Hey Ella, I've been a silent subscriber but love seeing videos like this. Very real and interesting :) I noticed you mentioned about cancelling Nick's hospital cover. You may know already but seeing both you and Nick are continuing to get pay rises and bringing home more income, your combined threshold may exceed 180K and may have to pay Medicare levy surcharge. It usually works out cheaper or about the same getting hospital cover instead of not holding any hospital cover and paying the surcharge.
firstly, thanks so much! your support means the world 🥹 & secondly, thank you for the advice!! honestly had completely forgotten about the levy so i'll make sure I look into it further before cancelling 🥰
I love you, but would prefer a as we go kind of video. For example going to get a coffee, going to dinner, going grocery shopping etc.
thanks for the feedback! I can definitely do more vlog style versions in future ☺️
The fact you go to ‘Smiley Car Wash’ - I cannot! 😂
hahaha gotta stay on brand 🤪
I got confused and thought I was on subscriptions page when I clicked this, I must have been on suggestions. I had a mini heart attack when you said paying rent and mortgage I was like oh no what’s happened!!
hahaha omg no 😅😭
I don’t usually comment but I just absolutely adore watching your videos and following you ❤️🥰 I can’t help but think the pot on the shelf behind you looks like teeth ahahahahah 😂 I keep catching it in the corner of my eyes lol
thank you so much 🥹🥰 that means the world! ahahaha definitely not teeth but I can see what you mean 😅
Holy shit thats alot of money wow. I want to do it for myself to see how much my family spends
This is so interesting to see! I need to be more conscious of my money movements 😅 I tend to feel guilty for eating out or buying a chai, but then I try to remember that food is probably my favourite thing in this world LOL
yes! i'm all for reaching financial goals and saving but life is also too short not to live a little sometimes 🤑 but yourself the chai!!
Love seeing these videos - I'm working towards doing these types of videos on my channel, lol Girl, you are inspiration!
thanks lovely! they're my fave too 🥰
The coffee is very relatable! Feel so lucky that my boss buys me coffee every day nowadays 😅 becomes damn it used to build up sooo quickly. I feel like I can’t face the day without it…
wow how good!! hold onto that 😅
Loved this video. I wouldn’t mind seeing more of these
so happy to hear! I can definitely do more 🥰
Thanks for the work. Thanks for Financial Transparancy. Thing Global... Act local. It is important.
You spend much more than me but you also have a lot more money than me 😂 Loved this video! Keep them coming ❤️
hahaha thanks gal
Love it scary totals is AUS money but I think even in GBP it would still make my eyes water just because you’re paying for two places right now. Did you do a video on why you’re building rather than buying a property around built I’d love to know the thought process, I’d love to build one day ❤
I know you love coffee and like you said you monitor and cut back where you want which is as it should be. Is there any reason you go for buying over making one at home in a travel mug? My daughter enjoys her coffee and there’s no shop between her work and home so she makes one to go I just think with how much $5 can add up over a year I wonder why you choose to buy out? Also I realise this was your first week back and perhaps not a true pic of your regular coffee habit 😊 I love that you have coffee Friday with hubby so important to keep dating ❤
we chose to build because of the area we want to live in ☺️ it's typically cheaper to build than buy an older house around here and there was more land available at the time than pre exisiting house + we get a brand new house so less maintenance, fixing things etc.
We usually only buy coffee a few times a week but this was a rough week 🥲 definitely love making my coffee from home too 🥰
@@smileycitrus thank you I love that you’re building I think because you get so much more input it really makes your house your home from the beginning rather than living in other peoples choices until you can get round to a Reno then living in a Reno urghhh I’d rather not lol 😂 I’m so excited for you.
You know little confession I hate coffee ☕️ 😳 but I love all the stuff for coffee and I do like the smell of beans but once you add water I want to 🤢 tea girl through and through it’s the British thing 😂 but yea I totally get it was a rough week getting back into the swing xx
Melbourne and Sydney are crazy expensive these days!!!
it blows my mind 😳😳
Australia seems on par with Ireland rent and mortgage wise. Our mortgage is €312.50 a week but my friends who rent pay €525.00 a week.
wow! that's quite a jump to rent 😳 very interesting
Don’t forget to factor in the exchange rate - 525€ per week is actually AUD$823🥹
How did you manage to get the right hand spending/pay column working?
I just followed the instructions and input pay when I received it. Spending columns update when I add them to the spending tracker ☺️
Is your pronunciation of Aldi a SA thing or a Brit thing? Because that is not how we say it in Queensland lol
hahaha definitely an English thing I think 😅 but I've heard people over there saying it both ways so who da heck even knows
I'm from Vic and my husband is from NZ but we live in QLD. Picking up the different ways we all say things is one of our fav games 😆
Here in Ireland we say Al-Dee
Two questions.
Are nick's parents nzers?
Is your gym in your old area so you can't go any more but still have to pay?
Ps I'm never giving up my daily coffee from a cafe haha
No, his parents are Australian and Croatian, he just has some family in NZ☺️ & the gym payment is for Nick's membership. I'm still deciding where to sign up around here/the new house x
What is the surveys that gives you money?
I use Octopus or Attapoll- both linked in the description box
How many years will you get out of your budget from Etsy 23-
as many as I need! you can just change the year and start again x
$630.17 from 1/10 through 1/17
Imagine tracking every single expense…do you have a life or does your life revolve around money? Jesus what a life. Are people tracking there coffee purchases 😂
calm down Lucy 😂 nobody is forcing you to track your expenses if you don't want to
Just shocked how some people live that’s all 🤣 but you are from Adelaide soooooo
Don't watch if it gets you all wound up Lucy 😂
hahaha who hurt you Lucy?
I feel so sorry for you omg 🤪
