    I think Cally has been updating a spreadsheet? Having a good October I'm at £216.99 so far already this month which takes my challenge total to £1,893.51 so should get to target by end of the year x

  • Still lurking, but wanted to say I spent every penny of my £2012 on a dream holiday and loved every minute of it. And the novelty of having a good budget and coming home with no debt was amazing

    Roll on £2013!:T:T:T

    Spreadsheet link is here - https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0ApBpGW_04zuodGF5bzZzM0RoWW5DR1MtX3JFWkhYdXc#gid=0

    All previous totals submitted to me are now added
    Inbox is cleared and ready for more totals

    I know I won't reach the £2012 target
    I need to do a big push this month

    Hi all,
    I have PM,d my october total to Cally.
    Managed to save £171.82. It may have been a bit more but I forgot to record things as I saved.
    Octobers total mainly down to saving as kids have changed their after school activity to a cheaper one, as they couldn't go any further with the one they were doing.
    Also saved with media supplier when I moved house and have saved for the next 6 months.
    The other bits are down to saving whilst shopping.
    November has started well though. Did an online freezer stock up this morning and saved 29.52 on multibuys and deals. Also had £10 off voucher code plus free delivery. so I saved £44.52:j
