£1.50 from week 3 of my 50p 52-week challenge + change from rounding down put me at £70 exactly!

Got £50 from my family by way of paying back the loan so £40 went to my aqua card, and £10 went into the EF

That + shrapnel from rounding down puts me at £83.74.

£100 is so close! :beer:

Hi Guys,

Apologies for not posting in a while, but I have good news!:beer:

I now have my £1000 in my separate bank account!

That really is good news, nellis. Well done:T. And welcome back too:beer:

Don't worry about the 'missing' 30p, you know you've got it that's the main thing:T

Sold an item on ebay today - they collected and paid in cash. After fees I've cleared just over £35 - so added that to emergency fund

Now £210/£1,000 (slow but sure)

£8.84 For me today = £5.00 reward from my current account and £3.84 from rounding down accounts :T

All appears to be good in the world of money-saving. I remember not so long back all the folks trying to save only to end-up having to spend-out on car repairs and vets bills.

Anyway, car tax paid, mortgage paid, last Council Tax payment until March and work has enough orders to keep us all busy until the end of March 2016 with more jobs being chased. Will be starting to negotiate a permanent contract soon as they hsve the work to justify it.

Just rounded down on my bank account and total now standing at £838.98. Getting so close to £1000, hope I can do it by the end of the month.x

Can anyone who's paid their car tax recently (and I know patman has) please tell me if they still send out the renewal letter in the post now tax discs have been abolished?
