    Evening all :)

    I've been having a think about what to do with this money. We have a hotel booked for our wedding anniversary in September, it was paid for as a Christmas present.

    Think I will use the money from this challenge to pay for a nice meal and maybe a spa treatment when we are there. Planning on adding £20 each month, as well as the pennies and pounds weekly.

    So, added in £25.85 today, taking my total to £36.50

    #13 £36.50
    Can't think of anything smart to put here...

    #2 transferring £6.93 making a new total of £43.23

  • Hello everyone, I did this challenge last year and I was one of those ones that did not come back with my final amount.

    I spent into most of my VSP which I felt bad about but I know that I had about £350 back the end which I used on Christmas presents. I did set a high target last year which would have been achievable but unfortunately due to bad weather DH wasn't getting out to work as often (he is a gardener). This year though I have to be more wiser and save as much as I can for the winter months that he is out of work.

    Anyway, is it ok if I joined again this year? My target this year will be £1,500 and I am starting with £3.21.
    Barclaycard: £4,217.55/£5 = 0.11% | Tesco £3,810.55/£3,770.55 = 1.05%
    Total: £8,027.80/£5 = 100%/0.06%
    Mortgage £99,692/£51,652.33 51.8%
    Car Loan: £9,217.20/7,527.38 81.67%
