The 'Save £12k in 2012' thread!

Just transferred the £37.33 I won with the referral offer to fab bingo to my savings;).

Transfered £100 today, but already updated Feb totals - will simply add it to my March one, as expecting to do another £600 on the 1st!

Great to see so many savings success...

Wow!! What a great thread!! I would like to join too 12k sounds lovely, but I know that my savings goal is a lot lower than that (silly minimum wage). I get paid on wednesday, so I'll start my challenge on 1st March 2012. I think I will set myself the goal of.. £7000. A bit of a challenge but if it was too easy there'd be no fun in that.

I am saving for a car, and as a part time student I have to pay for some of my fees, all before the end of 2012, so those will be accounted for.

Despite some ridiculous spending (someone please rein me in!) I have today transferred £961 into savings, bringing my total to date to £2000! Amazing! Honestly, I'm so used to being in debt, and all my money going to pay it off, that now I can't help but smile when I move my money into a savings account!

Everyone's doing really well - keep it up! :T

oops sorry, I should have posted but I spotted it late wednesday on hukd and had to up early to be at work for 6.30am and didnt have time to post, it was all a bit last mo. I'll try to get on this thread next time to let you guys know.

Thank you very much, Desperate Housewife. I'll also try and keep an eye on the daily newspaper voucher thread to make sure I don't miss it again. They seem to be doing this offer pretty regularly now, aren't they?

I know it still doesn't look like it but I am well on target :j

Just under 5k saved so far for me. Really happy so far as I'm still having nights out, going Amsterdam in a couple of weeks etc.

10k is the target by the end of the calendar year. Wish I would have started saving sooner!

Roughly 50% there!!!

Well, I am declaring £1,105 for February (will update on spreadsheet). Have been a bit more cautious this time, as once again I've got work expenses on my credit card to pay.

I need a bit of a kick up the backside to be honest. The last couple of weeks have been disrupted work-wise and here I am, having driven to work (£5.20 parking) and bought my lunch (£2.42) when I could have walked and made something to eat. I would be far healthier too!

It is sheer bloomin laziness I tell you!! Need to get off my bum and make an effort.
