    We are playing more catch up at the moment, and for #63 we now have £20 - Whoop whoop! We've never been big savers, and my OH pointed out that this is probably the most we've ever saved in a dedicated way! Scary that it's as little as that!

  • Going to do this one online, as I already have two sealed tins going for other challenges. I've got a bank account that currently I don't have a card to, and I conveniently (or not) keep forgetting the login details so will use that. I'm also going to transfer any lottery winnings to it as well.

    Not sure I can join as doing something slightly different. I do all my shopping online, mostly Amazon. So I'm buying a £30 gift card every month. Started today and got £7 bonus to be spent by mid April so that will be used for birthday as all 3 in April and may
    Have a Bsc Hons open degree from the Open University 2015 :j:D:eek::T
