Updated form sent in, with extra £1000 added meaning £1880 total for August. Might make £12K target, but got some house bits to do over next few months which could scupper plans.0 -

Pay day today and reporting £1866.83 for this month. Not far from my target now. I set £6000 as a conservative goal based on having some debt to pay off and the anticipation of several unexpected expenses. However, I was secretly hoping to save £7200 by the end of this year. I have a couple of very expensive months ahead so will stick to my original plan for £6000 for now but if things turn out better than expected then I might shoot for £7200. Either way I'm really happy with my savings so far only £700 until I reach my goal! :jHomeowner:j0

Hi All,
#226 declaring nothing for this month i'm afraid. Got a few things happening so easier to declare nothing this month and then update next month I hope.
Congrats on your baby boy slowlyfading!

Evening all, have a bumper £2,657.43 to declare this month, got a payout from a work sharesave scheme but also few outgoings, a quiet month staying home and being frugal. Very pleased, esp since I had an unexpected though not that big plumber's bill.0
