Helping you save stick loads.
I tried stretching my pay-cheque the other day and just
couldn't do it. So I decided to use the envelope approach by

pay me because everything they do, they do to save you money.
- No more than 50% of your income should be spent on your "must
haves", i.e. things that you can't go without such as
rent/mortgage, car, electricity, basic food and clothing, and so
on.
- No more than 30% should be spend on your "wants", i.e. extra
clothes, cinema, drinks, shows, internet, cellphone, trips and
vacations, new appliances, additional food (cheaper
cuts of meat instead of lamb

- 20% of your money should be put on "savings". You can choose
the type of investment like savings accounts, shares, bonds, PAK'nSAVE Christmas
