    I've gotten myself muddled, sorry.

    OH has now paid his part of the pot so I am ready to update the spreadsheet thing.
    Do I just put in the £62 for January or do I put in the grand total we have saved so far??

    Sorry, I am not very bright and have just gotten myself a wee bit confused.
    :embarasse

    Oh... and is there any chance of getting an update on here with totals or do we have to request access to the spreadsheet?? (I am scared I break the spreadsheet so would rather not access it just in case).
    I would love to know how well we are doing moneywise though.
    :o

    I feel your pain :rotfl: I updated my total for December which will become part Jan total and then read Mr CF's bit about percentages per month - doh!!

    I haven't asked permission to view the soreadsheet because I don't want to use my email so I apologise in advance if I confuse matters! :( i've changed my signature so that I know where I am even if no-one else does :D

  • Happy New Year to everyone. £1.10p in the pot for today. I love New Years Day. A whole and, as yet, unblemished year ahead to put right all the poor decisions made in previous years. Well that's the plan and if its going to be then its up to me.

    Happy New Year everyone:beer:

    Have put my 1st £1 into each pot to start me off.

    My apologies the OP regarding the spreadsheet, I also won't be requesting to see/use it.
    I done this challenge last year and done 2 pots then too. I just updated my totals on the thread and in my signature each day. It's far easier for me to follow :)

    £2 in for today - this leaves me with no money so will have to make a trip to the bank today. We're on a tight budget this month so I'm avoiding the bank as much as I can;)
