    I'm thinking about revising my target to £400 by April, I've already revised it from £300 to £350 but I'm doing really well so I think it'll be possible :D

    shall i put £400 by your number in post no.1?:A

    and iv made £75.11 profit so far in one account on ebay, when it clears in my account i will transfer the 10%, the rest iv got to use to pay my bills - rent, council tax and my tax credits overpayment debt yuk yuk

    Count me in!

    This is similar to what I did last year with the sealed pot challenge - that was distributed over a physical sealed pot and a savings account. Target was £500, actual amount at the end of the year was around £900 so i'm very keen to do it again!

    hiya
    yep you are number #036, good luck and well done on your last years challenge! its an inspiration to us all.xx:D

  • Hey spam.jam can you put me down for a target of £250 please?
    Not too sure how much I'll manage to save but figured thats a good figure to aim for, I can easily up it if I near that target.
    Thanks

    OHHHHH can i join? I am part of the sealed pot challenge, but i emptied it to pay for my weightwatchers meeting one week in! lol.

    I have the perfect Barclays acc to put it in as well, as i have it only as a "parachute account" if Nationwide close my account after putting in a claim for my OD charges. It doesn't look like they will deal with the claims for a loooong time so i may as well put it to use!
    Credit Card 6.9% - £0/£2800
    Graduate OD 19.9% - [STRIKE]£1000[/STRIKE] Paid off Sept 11 :beer:
