Sounds like everyone is doing great!

Can I just remind everyone to fill in the form on the first page? It makes my life so much easier Thanks!

Just quoting myself again - will do an update during the week, but everyone is doing so well

I don't fill in that form as only ever on here via my phone and its not the greatest for navigation. Will have a look on laptop sometime

Easter update! Regular saver matured with £78 in interset ontop of the £3000 I had saved over the year. Another Regular Saver opened on same day with £250 (4% Interest this year instead of 6%) £600 into the new house fund and I have also managed to save an extra £1000 this month too so total update of £1,850 for March.

I still can't bring myself to treat myself to a new pair of trainers though!

A good month for me - managed to transfer £1750 into various savings pockets. We are starting to get our flat ready to sell, so might be spending from now on rather than saving, but hopefully still put a bit away.... Good luck for the month ahead everyone.

Could only put £200 into the pot this month, house buying costs are beginning to creep into my savings

When I signed up I wasn't sure how much we could save because OH was still looking for a job so I'm pretty pleased that we've managed to save over £1300 so far this year. It's been confrmed today that OH has job with an agency at least until August, so I'm excited that I'll soon see the savings total rise again :j
Good Luck to others looking for work / new jobs

I didn't manage to put anything extra in for March, which was expected. I did, however, manage not to touch anything that was already saved, this was not expected and so I am pretty bloody pleased! Still leaves me at a piddly £150, but it's something!

£150 is not piddly and nothing to be scorned at. £150 saved is considerably better than £150 owed. Keep going, you are doing great....... :T

Well March stayed at £500 for me. I do have an extra £300 by the looks of it, but I'm planning two big spends: a bed and a laptop and have the large outlay of car insurance and MOT next month to cover as well, so going to keep some in my current account.

...another year where I've not managed to fill an ISA!
