Former shopaholic shares how she saved £400 a month by changing her habits

A Luton woman is saving £400-a-month by giving up takeaway coffees, clothes shopping and getting her nails done.
Lauren Napper, 30, says she's always been conscious about saving money after it was drilled into her from a young age not to be frivolous with her spending.
After buying a house in September, 2021, Lauren realised she wasn't saving and often found herself living paycheck to paycheck.
In December 2023, Lauren realised her lifestyle needed to change and she implemented changes to save money – including shopping at charity shops, not going out for food and doing bulk shopping.
