    I had initially started doing this back to front (£52 first...) but had to pause that and eventually start using some of the money saved, sadly.

    I've now started it again with minor twist. I'm not following a set pattern, 1 week I might add £30 and the next week might be £2 - but the 52 variations will be done. My income varies too much from month to month so this may give me bit more success.

    £133/1378

    This is a great idea, I was planning on doing it back to from too :T but I love your idea of mixing it up a little bit and putting in what you can afford, but the variations will be completed :) thats where my calander,and diary will come in handy :) thanks for the tips :) x

    Adding week 4 a little early and have transferred £20 accross to my savings acount (total £28). I ordered a top on line a few weeks ago with Christmas money and it is OOS so have had money refunded. As I had already "spent" it in my head I figured it was better off in this challenge pot rather than getting lost (aka mindlessly spent) in my main account!
  • Hello:

    So far I have
    Week 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 8, 10 & 13

    Trying to get a head start as I'm sure there will be some weeks with no money going in :)
