    Is it me who can't believe it's almost the end of February already?!

    Certainly not. Although it's to be expected of February (short month) it still appears to have flown by exceptionally quick.

    On the subject of an update I'm pretty sure my savings for this month wont be topped up any further. Next month I'm going to need spending money for my holiday (long weekend) so savings will be a reduced amount although the effects of my pay rise will counter balance this somewhat.

    Behind target. No credit purchases. All smiles. Forever determined!

    Well my 'month' ends today and I have a grand total of £584.25. I'm really pleased with this but next month will be tough as I have drawn up my will (£200+:eek:) and I need to travel down south to see Dad as he is sick again (£80).

    Well done all, now I'm off to update the spreadsheet :D

    I know - I can't believe it either! :eek: On the bright side though that means it is nearly pay day again :D

    My total for February is £200 so that makes a total of £610 so far for this year.

    Haven't posted much on this thread lately but have not gone away. Savings for Feb going pretty well, not going to declare early though as I did last month. I found some coinage round the house this morning to bump up the total before the end of the month. Next month might be trickier but I'll cross that bridge when I come to it. :)

    Agreed with those who say the year is already flying by. I haven't got used to the idea that it's 2014 yet! And it's nearly spring! :)
