    Paid in weeks 8,9,46,45 today for April. Was hoping to do four of the big ones but we've had a very expensive month!!

    I really hope we can get back in track next month and continue but am s bit worried as usually the summer is quite expensive with being out and about a bit more.

    Hiya... am feeling really good today. Couldn't afford to do the challenge by myself so OH and me are paying half each.

    We have been adding in little bits and pieces when we can as well as our penalties, (we had a penalty system so that if we removed money, we had to repay it plus an extra fiver).

    Counted it yesterday and we have £796. Really please with how amazing we are doing as voluntary saving is not really something I have ever done before.
    I was all excited and told my parents and, as I am incredibly lucky and a bit spoiled (sorry), my Dad gave me another £4 to make us up to a beautiful £800!!!!!!
    :j

    #88 - £800!!!!!
    :D
