Hey Kittycat
That's exactly what I'm after! An account that's going to make it hard to withdraw from but not impossible.
The end game is to hopefully buy my 1st house so have been looking at Nationwide's save to buy, but going to scout around a bit more 1st before I decideSave £12k in 2025 #32Make £2025 in 2025 #28

Yey to savings accounts!! My BF has just opened his ISA for this year, he should be debt free in a couple of months and then he'll be headlong into saving for a deposit while I pay all mine off behind him!! I've looked at the NW Save2Buy as well, we both bank with them so it would make sense to get a mortgage with them as well!! Keep your aim in mind and you'll save tons really quickly!!! :TNest Egg Savings Target: £7300/£10,000

My no spend days ended yesterday unfortunately but nevermind I'm happy I managed to do it at the weekend:p
Going to have to spend some money today also, really need my boots re-healed and its either that or buying a new pair so am seeing it as a good spend.
My monthly DD came out yesterday for the loan so only another £10,295 to go:eek:Save £12k in 2025 #32Make £2025 in 2025 #28

Oh no, I've purchased a few things this week and I didn't need any of it!!:mad:
In my defence it wasn't for me, it was for the house but I didn't need to replace any of it, the new stuff was just so clean and shiny...
I'm going for a walk to train and also work my frustrations out

Right back on the wagon!
Again the weekend was a lot easier for me than the week, it helped that I had overtime on sat and mon.
Should be an ok week if all goes to plan, I'm out on Wednesday night but other than that I will hopefully have the rest as NSD's
My current account doesn't seem as bad as i thought it was so if I really reign it in I could still be in the black come pay day:TSave £12k in 2025 #32Make £2025 in 2025 #28

Ooh the lure of clean and shiny things :eek: I was clearing out our wardrobe yesterday and I looked at the doors and frame - cos it's been in and out of storage it does have a few marks and is looking a bit battered (on the inside mind!) and I was just thinking about getting something new. All very well and good but it's not falling apart and I'll have to wait I til I'm debt free!!
I managed to avoid using the 25% off voucher code I had over the weekend too! They even emailed three reminders to make it extra difficult but I made it through just about!!
I hope you have a great week 1stTimer, keep up with the good work!!Nest Egg Savings Target: £7300/£10,000
