can you please add me too for the full £12,000. I lost DH in Oct and although he left me, at the moment, financially secure l need to look to the future. I want to retire at 55 so that gives me 5 more years save, save, save.

Sorry about your loss

Spreadsheet and front page updated if you could make a note of your challenger number that would be great!

Our collective target so far is £911,500.00

Hi slowlyfading,

Can I sign up for the full 12k in 2015 please?

I've done the budget for the year and I'll need to find an extra £50 per month plus some extra for a holiday and those unexpected expenses that crop up so it's going to be a challenge

Can I join this thread as I really, really need the motivation.

Could I have a target of £3000. I am on a low wage and have a house which is lovely but a total money pit, but if I don't try I will never know :think:

Being new to this, I have a question and please don't think I'm a total numptie.

What counts and what doesn't. Is it only extra income (like surveys, roadkill or interest on accounts) or is it anything (10p off a chocolate bar and saving £2 on your shopping cos you used a loyalty card).?

Ok so that was two questions but I'd love to know what you count and what you don't?
