    Happy New year all.

    I managed another £300 in December which means I had a great year. Looking forward to seeing what 2015 brings as we have to pay for a new car we've bought and are planning to move :shocked:

    Thank you Slowlyfading for all of your hard work and keeping everything up to date.

    Hi Everyone!! Sorry for the late update... Just returning to normality here!!
    I'm declaring a total of £1800 for December, very much helped by a £1k cheque from the grandparents for Christmas and Mum and Dad funding the family Christmas holiday in lieu of doing presents!!

    This brings my total for the year to £10,300! :j

    Over the moon that I've managed to just exceed my target in this first year of proper saving!! Roll on 2015!!!

    Sorry for the late update. I did have a little something to declare for December...but not sure what happened to it.

    I stayed at home for Christmas and so kept it cheap and quiet. I also only bought 3 presents and cheap cards. However, the savings have disappeared. The money has gone on what would have been future purchases, I stock pile if I see a bargain, so I should see the benefit of this through the year.
