I'm either getting paid tomorrow or Thursday, depending on when the boss remembers!
I don't think any more is going to come in so I am declaring £1232.66 for July, which is considerably better than I was expecting. I've done the update form, hopefully correctly ha ha
My super budget plan starts 1st August, bit nervous about sticking to it but I just have to think about the savings at the end of it. Savings, and not just debt repayments, I can't wait x0 -

I'm changing my target to £8,000 from £10,000 (though I was really hoping for £12,000). I've had a really expensive couple of months - decorating inside and out, new carpet in 3 rooms, some new furniture and £2,500 on a dental implant and new crown :eek: . At least it's all done now and the house and teeth are looking nice
:D.
I will make it up next year - 20 grand over 2 years.
Because I've been spending, I haven't been on this board much recently. I've found without it, it is so easy to fall of the savings wagon ("what's another 50 quid, when I've just spent 2 grand?"). So from next month I shall be reading all your encouraging postings and being tough on myself!Save £12k in 2022 thread #7:

Payday at last!!! I've been more impatient than usual since I was close to a big milestone.
So... I saved a nice round £500 in July. I've saved £5,644 so far in 2015, and £90,483 in total.
I'm finally over the £90k mark!!!!!!!!!!!! Yay!!!

SF's less than fourteen days from her due date Tara, so it could be any time! I look in each day expecting a HUGE announcement. I think of her and her baby often and am convinced she, her husband and baby are going to have a truly joyous life together.“And all shall be well. And all shall be well. And all manner of things shall be exceeding well.”

I haven't been around for a while-real life getting in the way-but I'm declaring a whopping £3817.66 for July!
I've shattered my target of £5000 but I'm just going to keep on saving. I'm going to put some effort to coming on here a bit more often too.
Everyone is doing amazingly.
