I already aim to save £10k by April 2014. I would like to sign up for £8k to push myself to get to the target earlier. This will keep me focused and onto that target.0

I would like to have another go at this in 2013. I set myself an unrealistic target last year and without DH fully on board found I didn't have the motivation to continue.
Today we received notification of a PPI payout and it has fired us up to clear our secured loan by the end of the year. In fact it was DH who suggested it!
DH will be starting his new job in the new year with a pay increase and DS nursery fees will be reducing dramatically this year so I feel that this is the year we can achieve our savings goal:D
Please put the XSpenders down for £13000.
