    Afternoon everyone, have been away in Prague for almost a week and have now caught up with the transfers. Well done to everyone so far, it's amazing what you're all doing and hopefully the enthusiasm will continue long into next year!

  • just registered for online banking in my new Christmas 2015 saving account and downloaded the mobile app so it will be nice and easy to transfer each month the minute I get paid!! Nice to see the first £31 sitting in there unable to be touched by OH's sticky paws when he runs out of parking change :). Will be putting the next payment in at the end of this week when I get paid for December. Happy saving everyone.

  • Spreadsheet updated. If you have a look on it we have hit 25% saved of January already. Although it is half way through the month, most people are updating at the end of every month so this will get bigger and bigger :D

    I had loads of change to put in my new tin but after a trip to my shop for food for work, this has all vanished. I'm sure I can find more :cool:

    Just a reminder to folk, when completing the update form, please fill in your total saved for that month, not on top of your last update. This way I can see your updated savings figure and for what particular month. Some people had filed out the form 3 or 4 times with like £5 saved for January. Is this £5 saved in total or £5 that week? Just makes it easier for me and the spreadsheet (sounds like its a person lol) :rotfl:

    Hope everyone is well. I'm desperately trying not to spend anything this week as I'm skint haha

  • Great to read everyone's stories.. Yes Whitesatin, my money is also too accessible and I dipped in mine but I have replaced it. I have £15 in mine now.

    Glad you had a good time MrCF in Paris... can you imagine this.. if we all save our money, we could all go this time next year, might get discount with all the members lol... Wow, there is going to be enough money to make a dent in the National Debt!!

    Keep it up everyone :)

    PM winging its way across MrCF as I cant access the spreadsheet, I think its an email issue my end as I cant for the life of me remember my google account details.. duh
