Saving Isn't Always the Answer

I get paid tomorrow. Usually, the night before pay day, I put any leftover money from the previous fortnight's budget into my savings account.

However, at the moment, my city is going through a serious heat wave. I have been sleeping downstairs on a thin mattress because it is just too hot to even be upstairs, let alone sleep. And as a result, my air con has been getting quite the workout.

Therefore, anticipating the higher than usual electricity bill, I am paying that extra money straight to the electricity company. Hopefully that will lessen the blow when the bill comes.
