  • Just to let you I'm still here but I tend lurk more than post;)

    Just had a look at the spreadsheet (something else rarely do) aren't we doing well!

    I can feel a "free" Christmas coming on :j

    Well done everyone

    £31 added the other day. Now stand at £124/£365

    Can't seem to access spread sheet today to update my number.

    That's strange, send me a PM with your email address and il make sure your actually on it. I have updated your total on it so your figure is all upto date anyway.

    Gutted I've only just seen this would you class April 1st as a good place to start

    Yes you can start not a problem but you will have to play catch up as your target will still be £365.00. I will backfill your savings to the months you've missed. So when you've saved £31.00, fill in the form for December and then so on etc. you will get the hang of it. Have a read of the first post to help you.

    Haha, as soon as I get change now I'm more secure over it than my OH. Counting my shopping total in shops to get as many £1 coins in the change as possible. Probably a bit sad.

  • Another day, another update. Lots of totals already coming in for April so that's great.

    I removed all the users who hadn't updated since December. It's now April and as they haven't updated since then, I can't see them coming back. Your numbers have changed again slightly from this, sorry I know I've just changed the numbers.

    Next year I'm going to let everyone pick their total target so when people join the challenge late, they don't have to play catch up.
    It also means for the big savers out there, it's a bit more fair.

    It annoys me when people don't update, maybe I can't be bothered and will forget to update everything. Only kidding :rotfl:

    I'm away this weekend so there will be no updating but I'm sure you can manage without me. The star daily poster Hoipollio will keep things ticking over :D
