Sorry havent been on here for a while, havent transferred much lately as this month is a bit tight with birthdays etc but won £50 at bingo saturday night and getting some money owed to me on thursday too hopefully.

Have transfered £7.53 added over last week

total now £208.63

so £208.63 / £400 (52.15% there)

was tempted to duck into it a few times this month but have been really good and not done yet, its so hard not to though.

Ok, so I got a little carried away. I transferred my current account down to zero doing this, so I've decided to only do it once a week from now on, as you are all advocating, rather than once an hour / day / whatever it was.

So, Yesterday was Friday, and I transferred £9.39 and I now have a VSP balance of £72.68 I'm leaving it well alone til next Friday now!

That is definitely a good idea, I was religously checking morning and afternoon, knowing that it wouldnt have changed much. I do check my balance every day but I only transfer about twice a week now.

If it is nearer the £10 mark (ie £9.75) then I transfer over £5 instead if I know I cant really afford it so would only transfer £4.75, other days I would be ruthless and transfer the £9.75 but mostly when it is near the end of the month

I'm doing this once or twice a week, depending on how late it the month it is getting - I'll probably slow down to once a week now until I get paid again. After today, Friday will be my day (that's the plan anyway )

£3.62 added today making my total £83.81

Transferred £60 and now have a total of £112 :T. It would have been more but i spent it on pizza and other trivial things . Anyway, i'm back on track now. There will be no more unnecessary spending!

I have £35.94 in my VSP now, can't remember how much I transferred over the last couple of weeks, but I will be putting my paypal earnings and surveys earnings in there too shortly

I have car tax to pay and some study fees to pay as well so I am hoping I dont have to touch my savings but at least I know its there if I need to.
