Being 'on hold' for 6 weeks with Emirates is doing crazy things to my head. In the meantime, I cannot help but notice things online or on the high street where I think 'Ooooh that'll help for when I'm cabin crew, Ooooh that would be nice to have in Dubai'. Two weeks ago I visited the Christmas markets in Manchester, and had a wonderful time. On my walk through, I popped into Paperchase to pick up some craft things.
Now, I don't know about you, but I love stationary. My eyes are glazing over all the clean, freshly wrapped and untouched stationery that is all pretty and perfect. Omg, I have a problem. Anyway, I came across this budget planner and got rather over excited. I have read alot of Emirates blogs over the past couple of months, and it appears that some crew members lack abit of self control and binge their wages on crap. So, I bought this budget planner with the view to help me out over the first couple of months whilst out in Dubai.
I am aware that we will get an advance on our wages for the first month. However, this has to be paid back over the next 2 wages so money is going to be abit tight. It is highly unlikely for me that I will be able to take much savings so this budget planner will hopefully keep me stay on the straight and narrow. It's full of practical advice on saving money, and provides information how to improve you budgeting skills. It's also cleverly organised into different sections, and gives a month by month planner. I love the fact that it's got little pockets inside to hold receipts.
