    No 208 reporting £60 this month. Just past the half way point. Hoping I will have a good amount in my SPC pot in November which will bump up my savings! Got a couple of birthdays coming in the next 2 mths, so might not be able to save anything next month but we'll see :)

    Would anyone mind if I joined late? I'm aiming for £10k by the end of 2015.

    I have just become debt free (last week) and intend to just carry on putting the same amount into savings as I was paying off my debts! I'm also due a bonus from work which I've been waiting for for ages, so this should enable me to have £10k banked by 31st Dec.

    Fingers crossed anyway!

    An unexpectedly good £1700 for July. I'm feeling very pleased with myself. It's going to be difficult to match this in August but I'll try my best...
