    Let's all lump it together at the end of the year and buy an island or something :rotfl:

    OMG i didnt realize how addictive this money saving malarky is. Its all i think about and Im definately being alot wiser than I was with money.

    Ditto! I seemed to be able to find something everyday in Jan to add but lagging somewhat this month (and only 2 days in!) Going to try a few things on ebay though :)
  • Number 189 - Jan total £852.25 which is £18.92 over my target for this month :) Particularly good as I have paid for my holiday at the end of February including spending money this month! (Slowly Fading, I filled in the form on page one for you).

    This is definitely addictive! I feel disappointed I can't make any more savings until the day before payday (probably).
    2021 MFW #35: £6000/£6000
  • oops...saved £150 TWICE by accident this month!

    I changed the DD to an earlier date and forgot to put next date as 1st March and it went out 1st feb, I'll just leave it and catch up next month............

    £5 transferred from both Halifax accounts today :)
    Save £12k in 2012 no.49 £10,250/£12,000
