Snoop’s ‘Planuary’ guide helped me get off to the best possible start to 2021

Snoop provided the chance for everyone to get organised for the year ahead with a four-step guide called ‘Planuary’. At the start of the year many of us begin fitness campaigns and, although I chose to run every day for January, I also realised with helpful tips from Snoop, that it’s just as important to consider the health of our personal finances too. 

Planuary has helped me get off to the best possible start to 2021 and arrived in four parts. Step one looked at monthly budgeting and how to make the most out of the Payment Hub – a simple to use feature that lets me view all my upcoming payments. Step two looked at credit card repayments and had helpful information about chipping away at money owed, this coming at the right time after Christmas! Step three offered tips for checking regular bills which was easy to do using my Snoop Payment Hub. By the time step four arrived I was already moving ahead when Snoop dropped tips about making extra cash with a useful reminder about selling unwanted items around the house using eBay.

February is going to be a busy month with the all latest Snoops that I’ve just checked out too! I’ve joined the SnoopSpace Forum where as a fully-fledged member you can find useful categories, tips and feedback from other members along with news from Snoop on new releases and launches. By finding just a few minutes out of every day, we can all browse and pin Snoops and, although I’m not yet ready to switch my energy provider just yet, I will definitely be doing that later this year. It’s worth taking a look to see what you can save by switching providers too and you’ll find helpful details about whether energy prices are going to rise in the app.

With many of us working from home, I eagerly read the Snoop on “how to boost your broadband speed”. As a result, I’ve ordered a power adapter cable that will improve my Wi-Fi by hardwiring my laptop into the broadband router. There really is a tip for everyone on Snoop and when my son had a problem paying in a cheque he had received at Christmas, we checked Snoop’s ‘Quick tip’ for banks that let you pay in cheques through their app and we found that his bank was there which allowed him to do it.

In addition to making savings, some recent purchases have been made too. After seeing recent Snoops it will be even easier getting outdoors now with my new Regatta coat that came with 70% off the original price, all thanks to the shopping Snoop. With so many families separated in these difficult times, we also took advantage of the Snoop regarding M&S couriered bouquets by sending our daughter some lovely flowers to cheer her up. In the coming month I will be looking at many more useful Snoops and although my running challenge is coming to an end, my budget health check, with the help from Snoop, will last all year.

The weekend ahead is already planned by listing items around the house on eBay and who knows, there could even be some cash arriving from a few sales in the weeks ahead too - so thank you Snoop!
