My total amount for December (that was carried over from 2014) is £103.

Been putting £2 a day aside since 1st December. Now have £52! Pleased to be planning ahead for Chrimbo 2015. In other news, I am proud to say that this is the first Christmas since I was a child that I have not used a single bit of credit to buy presents/fund Christmas!

I have been adding £2 for the month of December instead of £1 to see if I can maintain the extra and this has worked so from now on I'm going to pot £2 a day.
I will update the spreadsheet later:)Debt Free 1st March 2017
