What did you spend your third transfer on?
I spent the larger part of my third transfer on paying school fees for my two children who are in high school for the whole year 42,000 KES .I have a peace of mind since I am not worried of them being sent home for school fees arrears any time soon as a larger wait has been relieved from me despite having along way to go.I also bought household expenditures and a bag of maize for my family's consumption
