Her PPI ad has one comment! Whenever she teams up with a financial product, the engagement is always awful. People don't want this content from her.
Wasn’t she telling people that buying Hello Fresh stopped them from falling into the takeaway trap?!Hitting financial targets due to stopping getting takeaways and sticking to the ‘two shop method’….. but a few days ago she was shilling Hello Fresh to her followers as a service she swears by
It's so weird to me that she had to buy so much for this baby as well - was she a surprise maybe? I don't read all of her posts. You'd think you'd hang onto some bits from your older kids otherwise. And also, does she not have any friends or family with kids who give her hand-me-downs? I honestly got given SO many things secondhand from friends who'd completed their families, or things on loan if they were between babies. Some of my friends said they'd thought about selling them but the resale value is so low (if you've just bought ordinary stuff and not Mori) that it was easier just to pass it on to someone else. It was funny, I was helping out on a school trip and the woman running the workshop (whos is also a mum at school) asked my 5 year old daughter a question and said "I'll ask you because my daughter used to have a cardigan just the same as yours. But she's 14 now!" Then another mum said "actually, that is your daughter's cardigan, you gave it to me years ago and I gave it to her after my two were finished with it" LOL. The never-ending cardie. And I've now passed it on to another friend so it lives on! And it was only a Tu one. You don't need to spend £100 on something for it to last!Just read her post about buying baby items and clothes second hand and not necessarily the most expensive and new.
No tit Sherlock, it took you 3 kids to realise that? It is just common sense whether you are on a budget or not
I wondered if there was a thread and if it was just me that was feeling a way and I’m glad to see it’s not just me.
She has a problem with shopping and spending. She was forced into a position to address it but the second she was able to monitise her content, she did and the spending started. I’ve yet to see any actual money saving tips as of late and it’s been replaced by her justifying her spending.
I was done the second she partnered with Klarna. I think it’s despicable when the average influencer with a following does it, let alone an apparent frugal champion.
Goes to show her “I’m one of the people” act was just that. She was quick to sell her soul.
To drive up engagement I suspect….I started this thread! Glad others have joined in my way of thinking about her
Why is she so cryptic about the golden child's name?
A few people seemed to be upset that I didn't like St Claire but they're waking up now she's so smug and full of self importance it's unrealTo drive up engagement I suspect….
Bravo for starting this, if she refuses to be accountable on her social media then she needs to be somewhere
The way she posts about her sons vs her daughter is wild to me. Golden child indeed. Although at least I don’t know what the boys look like which is how it should be.I started this thread! Glad others have joined in my way of thinking about her

Any good financial planning accounts on IG or TikTok people would recommend?
Mainly I think it’s just looking up de influencing content & engaging (viewing, liking, commenting) on financial bits that has made my FYP pretty relevant, but if I had to think of my favs off the top of my head it’d be:Any good financial planning accounts on IG or TikTok people would recommend?
IG and TikTok? Nope. Never seen one that isn’t in some way trying to flog something and anyway you get advertised to the entire time you’re on the app. My best tip is to go on the MoneySavingExpert forums (especially the “Old Style” threads) and get advice from thrifty pensioners who are unimpressed by fads and wouldn’t know a TikTokker if they found one in their (homemade) soup.The way she posts about her sons vs her daughter is wild to me.

Not disagreeing with this but I honestly think things are changing somewhat because of just how bad the economy is. Millennials who are used to only ever living in a low interest rate economy whilst simultaneously having shite hyper targeted to them/consuming more than any generation prior to us has are waking up to horrific situations - it’s not rare to hear about £30/40k credit card debts on TikTok atm. I do agree that the social media side of it makes the brand deals inevitable because as soon as they gain an audience they’re able to monetise it, but I think knowing when to pull the plug on someone is key here. I think there are accounts where the person has had a profound spiritual awakening re consumption and capitalism where they no longer participate in the harmful cycles that perpetuate it, and they tend to make the highest quality content of most interest (to me lol) filled with personal reflections and a real lifestyle change. It’s the ones who just want to clear the debt so they can resume buying more that end up like Clare.IG and TikTok? Nope.

I’ll add The Broke Generation. Especially if you need to curb spending, ahem.The way she posts about her sons vs her daughter is wild to me. Golden child indeed. Although at least I don’t know what the boys look like which is how it should be.
