The "Save 12k in 2015' Thread!
Comments

Hi Everyone,
Hope everyone has had a good month? I haven't had chance yet to catch up with everyone's progress - but I'm planning a bit of reading over the weekend to read through the thread!
So this month I have managed to save £500, not the start I was hoping for, but I have some money coming in from this month which I will count next month - so I'm hoping it will even itself out over the next couple of months!
I would love to do the full £12k this year... so my bedtime reading this month is going to the MSE forums.... lots of inspiration and support in saving money!
Good luck everyone!0 -
Just done my pay day money shuffle!
Another £106.28 is now sitting nicely in my deposit fund.

Well unfortunately we have had some bad news this week - my DH has lost his job
. Luckily we already have a savings net but I'm not sure how this will affect my savings goal in the short term. I am not making any changes yet though.
Final amount for January £650:money:0 -
Spreadsheet and front page updated
As you can see from my sig, we've got an exciting few months ahead which makes our savings even more importantBe who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

Congratulations SF, that's great news.
Have managed to save £495 this month, but unfortunately realised I set my initial target wrong and I need to save £7,940. Have done the update form.
Hope you're all doing well0 -
January closed with £1280.
Will delay the company pension until April (simply because there'll be a second scheme through auto-enrolment and I need to wait on the details to work out which is better for me) so will have a bit more to save than expected until then. No Council tax anymore either until 1st April so £120 more there per month.
Bad news is no pay rise yet - my manager had spoken too early so hoping for later this year now. Was unlucky as I was still in my probation - just - when everyone got 3%, apart from those on probation :-\0 -
Many congratulations Slowlyfading that's fantastic news.
