I get paid on the 28th of every month but any mileage, extra hours, overtime etc gets paid in arrears so june extra hour gets paid with july wage etc

when I get paid, I put money into joint account, keep enough for insurance, petrol, phone and maybe £40 or so if I need on toiletries and the rest goes into savings unless I know i'll need it for birthdays, trains etc! don't like to have a lot in my bank account like to put it all in my savings so I'm not tempted when I'm in a shop to buy stuff

yesterday woooo!!

I have my rent and ISA money go out on the 1st every month and my credit card bill (which is just used for train tickets & a few bigger purchases) on the 3rd every month. That usually comes to about a third of my monthly salary. The rest I keep in my current account, using bits when needed, then on the day after payday I move anything over a certain fixed amount into my other savings account!

It sounds like effort but im p good with money

I get paid every Tuesday, if I get kept on then it will be monthly :) I'm good at saving money, I've limited how much I can spend during my contract as I'm saving up for something :)

i only work a few hours a week so its never much but i get by easy as not a big spender

but its every second thursday. past few weeks i've been in a self imposed austerity not cos i was skint but cos i wanted my money to climb upwards (cos its satisfying) and had my bday so found out today i'm up to like £800 to £1,000 now which i'm reallyyyyyy happy with

The last Friday of every month - I mostly end up in my overdraft and on the more expensive months I end up with a payday loan. .-.

Last Friday of every month but I only get paid up until the Sunday before pay day.

Im pretty bad at saving and the two holidays I've had thisbyear havent helped me out either. Instead of saving Injust pay the lunp sum out of my wages then I go into my over draft n it ends up being one big catch 22. Hopefully I can sort myself out n stop going into my over draft in Feb because obviously its a short month so hopefully wont go into my over draft then.

Also, just bought myself a Saint Laurent card holder, idk why :| ffs

Mines every 28th of the month and i am hopeless at saving money but now i am more disciplined in my spending!
My money would last out until like 1/3 of my pay is left >< which sucks if i am going to set a goal of saving how much in how
many years time

On the second and fourth Thursday of every month. No idea why it's like that but it works for me. I normally forget until I see my payslip in my pigeon hole and then I think ooh yay

Do u I think it's alright. But tbh makes no difference to me cos I don't go on a spending spree afterwards so it just sits there in my bank account.

My old job paid weekly and I got so used to that. I've been in this job for 9 months and still find it hard to manage my money so that I still have some left by the end of the second week haha. I mean it all goes on food, cologne or clothes but it just disappears. Mind you I do put x amount in my savings every time I get paid but I've been doing that for years.

I get paid every two weeks, on Wednesday. I'm happy because there are 5 Wednesdays in November which means 3 pay cheques for me! Wooohooooo :)

I used to be terrible with my money. Money would come in, and I would spend it almost instantly, and I would never put any away for savings. I made it my New Years Resolution for 2016 to start being better with my money and to grow my savings, and I have been doing very well :) Lots of savings now, and it feels great. Pay days aren't even as exciting anymore. I mainly just put all of my money towards my savings and Student Loans.
