    I added £200 this month, maybe a little more in a few days as I'm getting £130 from Quidco this month. Probably won't be much to add at the end of April though - I'm off to South Africa this month so as long as I don't put too much on the credit card while I'm away I'll be happy.

  • Added £130.00 to my savings today to bring me to a new total of: £20,560.00 (thats without the interest that will be added on tomorrow :D).

    Very happy :D

    Having a day off tomorrow so will be heading to bank to get some money bags so can finally bank all my loose change piggy banks. :DShould get an extra £330 next month for the extra work I have done to date. Must also look for my tesco vouchers so I can convert these to restaurant vouchers. Got gifts from friends at work for helping them out - chocolate and wine so all set for the weekend!!
