    me again

    Just used my tesco vouchers to buy a magazine subscription for a magazine that my hubby buys - saved £29.50 using the Tesco vouchers rather than buying it through the magazine's one subscription renewal.

    Just worked we have 22 weeks in this challenge so broke down each target

    £510 = £23.19 per week

    £1010 = £45.91 per week

    £2010 = £91.37 per week

    £3010 = £136.82 per wek

    Thought this might break the challenge down into measurable steps for you.

    Hope x
