    Hello.

    Afraid this one had to stop. We just couldn't afford to keep paying in as the budgets all went a bit chaotic after our holiday in June. (We were at a wedding where OH was best man so wasn't something we could skip).
    :(

    Sorry for abandoning everyone. I think the plan is to just have a set monthly amount for the pot rather than a varied amount.
    :o

    Good luck to the rest of you with your savings.
    :)

    Transferred weeks 13-17 for September. Had hoped to do some of the larger weeks but the school holidays and a car breakdown put paid to that. Should be able to chip away at those weeks in October hopefully.

    Hello everyone,
    I;m a bit behind but have £646 in my weekly savings account. Has also been a bit crazy, what with partner only going back to work a month ago, me being in hospital and all sorts of crazy things - hopefully things are on the up now!
