Great budget video there, she, mentioned netflix but didn't have an allocated box for it. Or things, like road tax and MOT. and most importantly, her poor rejected dog,most pet owners, I know either gave pet insurance or put away money every month for vet bills or general pet care.

Also I saw she mentioned she doesn't get a TV licence because they don't watch it in TV, but I believe if you watch anything like iplayer or itv catch up, you should also have one. So how did she watch Love Island?!

I think with these kind of videos, unless you are living alone or completely transparent as a couple, they just don't work.

Only iPlayer

Itv hub is ok, it's just live itv you can't watch
 
Also don’t dogs need vaccinations, nails clipping, grooming etc? I’ve only ever had a cat but she cost around £80 a month. Not to mention the cost of paying someone to look after when we went away

Wait a sec… how does she justify that with George watching that amount of Mr Tumble!? Maybe he doesn’t now as she only seems to mention paw patrol recently but Mr Tumble is only on BBC and on the tv licence website it says any platform you watch BBC on (including YouTube) requires a tv licence. Trust me, I hate paying for a tv licence but I’m not going to dodge the system to save a little money and brag about it online.

She’s invincible remember and knows best. No point of even mentioning anything to her either as you’d be called out for attacking her 🥴

fair play to her for the comment about not wanting Ash to choose George's clothes haha

Tbf, she splits her bills pretty normally to me. We do 50/50 despite me earning more, but I cover all my kids clothes because I have better taste 😂

Some of those comments were saying she's hard done by because she works part time, had to do the nursery run and pay 50% of the bills... making out her husband does barely anything (let's ignore he works away most of the time)
 
To each their own, but I don’t know any married couple who doesn’t view their money as joint family money (with the exception of one but there’s a gambling-related reason for that). If my husband asked me to transfer him half of the electric bill, I’d think he was joking. It just seems very clinical to me.

We just pay a set amount into a joint account and our bills, childcare and food shop comes out of that and then we just keep the rest. It's more or less a 50/50 split. I don't ask my husband to send me £70 for the gas bill 🤣

We just put 50% each into the joint account where the bills go out, then add some savings each into our joint savings, then anything left is our own. I have more left, so tend to buy my kids clothes and gifts etc with my leftover
 
He pays bills and I do childcare. It’s how we’ve always done it. He would never ask me for money as I earn less but I often ask him for money if I need it. It works for us and I think money is what works for you!

Also she got the free holiday then.

Ugh. I used to work in influencer marketing (on the brand side not as an influencer lmao) so I obviously understand why brands do this. I don’t normally get particularly bothered by the freebie gifts. But a holiday is just irritating. It’s just soooo depressing to watch a well off influencers get a free or at least subsidised holiday when a lot people right now can’t even think about paying for a holiday!

This is what gets me. People are literally counting pennies rather than pounds then you have braggy Betty with her left income after bills getting freebies. Also worked in brand influencing and I only lasted 6 months as I just couldn’t do it.
 
Sorry to double post but just thought this was funny, you can make ASH SHAN and HAVEN out of these letters 😂😂 weird or what?
