    What is mazuma?

    My total for January was £349.51 - not as much as £15 per day, but if I ignore the amount I "invested" in TAB free bingo which I am expecting back into my bank account any day I did hit my target.

  • Hiya

    Better late then never! Just finished totting up for Jan and my total is £114 which I am really pleased with. Not quite the £5 per day but still a massive help towards my overspend on groceries - don't know what happened there! Came in under budget on fuel to so that helped too.

    Aiming for £5 per day again in Feb :)
