    Hello everyone, having now thrown into this years to complete the £365 can't wait to start the next one..... look forward to getting to "know" you all over the following year......
    I'm not a failure if I don't make it, I'm a success because I :tried!
  • May I join again please? It's a really good idea to do it from December to have it for Christmas.

    I have already opened this year's tin (I knew I'd passed the £365 target). I used the money to clear my mortgage, what a lovely end to the year!

  • Hi, can I join please? Did start this year's challenge but lots of emergencies came up this year, so I never got to finish.
    Emergency Fund £0/£500

  • Hi

    Well have opened my online account ready for this new challenge. I'm going to transfer the money in at the beginning of the month and that way I will know that I have made more of an effort. There is going to be £50 set up monthly by standing order as otherwise it will be a disaster. This works out at a little over £1.50 a day. Yeah I know it is an odd amount but it will work the best for me.

    Happy saving all. TTFN xxx

  • Hi

    Can I join this challenge please? This Christmas in particular is proving to be a headache due to a serious lack of money but I'm determined next year will be different. I rarely have cash on me so I'll be transferring it monthly to an online savings account that I've set up in readiness for this.

    Thanks
