Still haven't quite decided how to do this. I think might do it a but of a strange way and go forwards and backwards at the same time so I have already done week 1-4 as January is grim money wise. I'm thinking for the next four weeks I might do week 5&6 and 51&52.
My thinking is that then I won't have any months which I'm trying to save too much but I am determined to complete this challenge and by doing it this way I should get there.Determined to save and not squander!
