For the time you've been with us, 32b3in2013, believe me when I say you've done remarkably well!!! Keep saving like that and you're going to be delighted with yourself this time next year! :j You have lots to be proud of with what you've already saved!

That would be fantastic, b_e_g! It's good to have oldies back, you know I mean that in the best possible way...don't you! I'll put a link through from this one after midnight....about 8 hours after! :rotfl:

It's ok, everyone, I was only joking, honestly,

As I only started the challenge a few weeks ago I won't be declaring just going to keep going for next year (hope that's ok). I've already noticed a huge change in my spending habits (I've saved £80 already)and am actually sticking to my weekly shopping budget :eek:, bit angry with myself that I didn't do it earlier but never mind:mad:.

Anyway I've decided to set myself the challenge of £1,500 for next year to cover my OU course fees and hopefully enough leftover for Christmas next year.

Everyone wishes they started earlier, claireyfairy, but you have now and are obviously benefiting so much as a result, great news. Do you want the £1,500 put down as a Target? BTW, keep up the new way of life.

Excellent LeopardPrintsAndTea!! You are away.

WELL DONE, LittleOwl!! You don't give much away, but I'd think you should be so very, very happy with your savings. :T A great accomplishment.

I know I've said it before, getting-there-slowly, but your really ought to change your Username! You've done amazingly well to get that lot and I bet you're chuffed to bits at the strength you must have!!!! :T So you should!!

That's fine, Gold Dust, I just wasn't quite sure so had to ask. Good luck with your thoughts and hope to see you again.

Please, everyone, check that you have your Nos on your signatures. Many thanks.

Hello all

Popping on to declare my total for 2013:

SPC #1653

£192.08

Really pleased with this as I save my £2 on a separate challenge (£302 this year) so will be declaring that soon too. I also do the £365 in 365 days so have saved up £859.08 over the year if you add the 3 together which is amazing and achieved without really noticing it.

Many thanks for organising the thread. I don't manage to keep up through the year but it is a great challenge to be involved in and I love hearing how everyone got on at the end.

DDs who are 12 and 8 saved £146 and £60 respectively from their pocket money this year so they are really pleased too.

Will be joining in for 2014 and aiming to break the £200 barrier if I can.

Thanks again and best wishes for the festive season...

That's brilliant kiplingmonkey that your DDs are saving too!
