I've tried so many way's to save money over the last 2 years whilst been in a job however each time i try, I end up failing.
Just wondering if anybody else has some good tips to saving money, I've tried savings accounts etc but always take the money I've saved out.
Thank you.
I'm presuming that you use your savings for something fun rather than an emergency? You should always make sure you have an emergency fund for things like job loss, car breaking down etc (general guidance seems to be 6 month's pay). Make sure you budget for everything else including money you can spend on stuff you want otherwise you'll end up giving up as you never get to spend on anything you want.
Presuming you see it as money to spend, you could just put it somewhere harder to get out like a notice account or a written account. The trick is to not count it as part of your daily savings and try to forget about it. I transfer some of my pay out each month with a standing order to my savings account so I don't even think about it.
There are also some gimmicks out there to help you save like the chip app - good if you want something automated to figure out how much you can save or moneybox which rounds up purchases (although on moneybox I think the fees are high for tiny amounts of savings and if you are investing you should do so for the long term).
You could also go for a high interest account where you are limited to save £250-300 a month but get 5% interest (HSBC, First Direct, Nationwide, M&S) at the end of the year - so you'll be at a disadvantage of you take money out. You need to have current accounts with these banks though.
You could even incentivize yourself by letting yourself but something you want if you save £x during the year.
