    Hello all :)

    I would like you to...

    count me in...

    ... please. I'm an OCD saver (no odd pennies anywhere!)... so this account will be funded from anything "odd" in my current account every day.

    So far, the grand total is 75p and a more aesthetically pleasing current account! No particular aim or target :)

    Have just worked out (on a very complicated spreadsheet) that if I continue to save at this rate, I will have my loan paid off on 15th December 09. That's a year and a half early :)

    Next to figure out how much that will actually save me in interest payments!

    wow, well done. im still getting my head around the fact that savings earn interest, i mean, its free money.....lol :j
