Savings for women's day on a beautiful warm Sunday

2025-03-09T17:57:33
Hello Silver Bloggers and Hello Savers ...
Yesterday was women's day, but in reality I think everyday should be a women's day. I was brought up that you should treat women with respect every day end of story.
However in the spirit of things, I asked Mrs T if she fancied doing anything over the weekend.
She did mention as we had been having nice weather it would be fun to go the beach to do a spot of beachcombing.

So I figured we could combine that with a spot of shopping on the way back, as she had pointed a laptop tray that was on sale in the middle of the aisle in Lidl on Sunday! These apps and newsletters are great.

So down we popped onto the beach after buying a breakfast roll, gotta have some street food afterall and support local economies!


The weather was gorgeous although it was a bit hazy over the sea.

Morning was sorted though!



You can't beat getting some healthy fresh sea air.


One good thing about the sun coming out, is that dogwalkers will take their dog to the beach for a treat and don't they just love frolicking in the surf!


Being as it was Mrs T's day, I did pick up alot of seaglass and not take that many pictures!

But guess who we saw on the way back from the beach...



One of two big ass bumblebees!
Yeah spring is on its way. We had a mini heatwave for March but the rumour is that cold weather is on the way again!

So we made it to Lidl and sure enough Mrs T was right. In the middle aisle they did indeed have these laptop tray things!
Only three left....
Well two popped into my basket..
I did spend but heyho it was a saving too.. It has space for my phone my tablet my mouse and the my laptop which is cool.
This was for #beautifulsunday and #sublimesunday by @ace108 and @ace108!
But we are in the tenth weekend of 2025 and so here is my tenth weekly report of my Saturday Savers Club participation for 2025.
I am publishing this in our Silver Bloggers community as we do have an interest in crypto and passive income streams for our retirement!

Derailment!

This year is all about Just Doing It for me.
If you fancy joining in with the Saturday Savers club and the fun way to save ... then ... First up read this post Saturday Savers Club | Year 5: 2025 Launch and FAQs | 500 HP Prize Draw! | Everyone Welcome..

Primary Goal 1 = 667.95 HBD

Every now and then, real life scuppers our plans.
I had to do some rearranging of things and at the moment 0 HBD is in my savings. Hopefully I can start to get that back on track.

Secondary Goal 2 = 0.01095996 BTC

Whether or not I meet this target will depend on the price of Bitcoin.
The amount of Bitcoin I have now is ... still ... 0.00156829
So no progress on BTC! I have been juggling crypto around to do some things so will get back to BTC saving soon.
It is fun to collect things .... Now it is $HBD and $BTC.. Of course I collect more!
There we have it, it should be an interesting year!

My SSC goals for 2025 with progress to date against planned progress of 16.44% are :

Goal 1 = 667.95 HBD, To Date HBD, 0% progress.

Goal 2 = 0.01095996 BTC, To Date 0.00156829, 14.31% progress

Week 10 Goals and N2Hs



There are 52 weeks of course in a year, so I do have plenty of time to catch up my primary and secondary goals!

Verdict for Week 10

❌ DERAILMENT

It was another 2/10 week. I am giving myself 1 point for the nice 2 have goals ... and 1 point for writing daily!
However I got the yips this week and this is my first post anywhere since Wednesday! So next week's secondary HP goal will be slowed down..
Touch wood I can get put the HBD back into savings and will get the BTC autoinvest rejuvenated too!

Are you saving for something this year?

Thanks for visiting and have a wonderful 2025...
