Hi, thought I'd join this thread as I've just registered.

I currently save £250 a month into a regular savings acct which finishes in oct.

I currently have :-

Lloyd's cash isa - £6000
Lloyd's regular saver - £2400
Easy Saver - £123.

I'm not saving for anything in particular but I'm hoping to get upto 15k sometime next year.

Thanks Tara! I'm pretty chuffed, though it's nowhere near the dizzy heights of your total the OH and I hope to buy in the next couple of months so it's a final push to boost our savings as best we can! :rotfl:

Hello!
I've been lurking for ages. This thread is so inspiring, some of your totals are just amazing. I'm trying to get together 20k to buy my first house. Currently have 13.5k, so some way to go..

Bit late on reporting in as I was waiting for some freelance payments to clear but my August end total is £19,787.08. So close to the £20,000 goal now! Hopefully smash it this month and start working towards the next target of £25,000.

Well done dippykitty!

I like your idea of having £5,000 increments in your savings goals - I might try that. I tend to think in £10,000 milestones, and £90,000 seems so far away.
