£35 put into Credit Union this weekend.

You've just reminded me that I opened a CU account a couple of months ago with £10. We have one close by so instead of keeping money at home, I will pop in once a week and put it in there.

My intention for opening that account was to set up a standing order for two amounts, £25pm which I am now saving as I am on SIMM card only now - I should be able to buy a new phone outright if needed in a year or so, and, the other amount will be £50pm which is what we budget for gifts over the year (including birthdays, Christmas, wedding and new babies, lol). Now I will be boosting my Christmas fund, unbeknown to my husband, with the saving of £1 a day. Should be fun this time next year.

Well done everyone I have put in £14 to cover a fortnight, I have another jar with loose change I need to find this spreadsheet thingy....

Have a great time a Paris MCF, and happy saving everyone, its lovely to see the money building up

So I've decided to do mine online but now I have to decide if I want to do £7 a week or £1 daily!

Not sure but off to put my first £8 in and update my signature

Oh, and I've sent the form and requested the spread sheet

I've now set up a standing order to transfer £7 weekly on a Monday, I've added last week's and this week which should really only be £14 but I transferred £16 as it's been a long day and today's the 8th so I doubled that to get 16, I transferred the cash before I realised and now I'm going to leave it there!

I should say, I can be a bit dippy, especially when I'm tired! :rotfl:
