My total so far on this challenge is £2,420.42 and that will be up to 31st Jan.

Fear I may fail this challenge...am determined to have a good go though. have made a "february resolution" that i will make more effort!!!

Everyone else seems to be doing well. keep up the good work folks!

babyhead - you are doing amazingly :T If you are aiming towards £20k you are already 1 month of the year on target (if that makes sense? ) I haven't managed anywhere near that much but I am really proud of myself as I have saved more and made more doing extra bits than I expected to and hopefully a bit more before the month is out, though my sig doesn't reflect it yet coz it's all saved ready to pay when the credit card wants to start charging me interest. There is lots more I could do though and I could work even harder at it then I am so I am feeling positive! Think I may join you in that 'Feb Resolution' though if that's ok?
