So I have £65 left in my current account (luckily payday is tomorrow). Granted that's with £300 already gone to my regular saver, but that means I'll be about £500 under my target! I really hope my ex landlord pays the deposit in with no fuss so that I can make up some of it - it is due by Sept 28th unless he is contesting anything.Saving £10,000 in 2013: £4491.48/£10,0000

Hello folks - glad to see so many people still doing really well with this challenge!
Well this has been my worst month EVER!
Here's the figures...
Regular Saver 1 : £100.00
Regular Saver 2 : £250.00
Regular Saver 3 : £250.00
Online Saver 1 : £298.22
Total : £898.22
So 2 weekends away, Christmas shopping and lots of fuel expenses have hampered my success this month! But in fairness the time away was much needed and I'm saving money in the long run by buying some of the Christmas stuff now!
I am really going to try and have a frugal month next month and also I should have some money coming from Ebay and a friend who I lent money to earlier in the year!
The end of this year is in sight and sadly so too this challenge!
Any news on a 2013 challenge Slowlyfading?
I need to thank you for setting this challenge up, as it has really motivated me and inspired me to actually save quite a bit of money this year! x0 -
I'm definitely interested in doing this in 2013!
Time to get serious and start saving for a house deposit. Sigh.0
