£1.10 in the pot for today, or was it £2.20? I always put my money in first thing in the morning but this morning I couldn't remember if I had or not so to be on the safe side I assumed I hadn't so i may have put it in twice.0

I would like to join please!
As you can see from my signature I have managed to exceed my target this year.
I will save using the same method next year because apart from the £2's, everything else is 'free' money.
I think I will go for double next year - £730. I should have some of this year's pot left to carry over but don't know how much yet.Debt Free 🍾 since 6.8.13 £31,997Saving for 🎄 🎁 2025 £770/£730 105%6 mth 🆘 fund £6kMortgage offset fund £24.7k/£36.5k 67.7%It turns out the answer to my problems wasn’t at the bottom of this tub of ice-cream, 🍨 but the important thing is that I tried...0 -

Another £13 in the pot today. Cleared out my purse and didn't want to wait until tomorrow to add it, as I'll probably spend it before then! Brings my total to $40 for the month.Long time MSE user, I've had to re-register as I've lost my log in details:o
