    Have decided to be optimistic and increase my target to £11,000.

    Do I need to update the spreadsheets myself or post it in here? Not used this sort of thing before so no idea of the etiquette :)
    Done! Can I ask you a favour - can you put your challenge number into your sig? Ta :D

    I won't substitute value for cheap, and so far Mr M (my nearest sm) and @ldi are doing themselves proud.

    I have to agree. Aldi are Great!

    Quick Question...

    I tend to get paid at the end of the month and as a result have my savings go out on the 1st.

    Should I put this down as January's Savings or February's?

    Opinions please :D

    I'd say that if goes on the 1st, it's that month - so Feb! :)

    I had a feeling you was going to write that! I was looking for an excuse to cheat my January's value of a whopping £0.00

    Haha! Feb it is! :money:
  • My January total is £500.31 .. More than expected so hopefully I can keep going like that!
    I'm Number 76 :)

    Just entered my figure for January, well below my target but I have helped the kids with their savings and had to pay the deposit for the summer holiday so not all bad.
