Saving for Xmas 2016! - A pound a day

moneymanager

Happy New Year everyone.

So this is my first update and here goes:

I will be combining my virtual pot, £2, 50p, 20p & sealed pot challenge.

#12 potted £43.80

I thought I was doing £2 per day making me under target of £26.20 but just realised that I said £1.50 so under target by £8.70. Not bad for hubby being out of work during winter.:)

This morning I have paid over all the money needed to settle what was spent on the card last month. I'm really pleased that the monies saved last year was more than enough to cover Xmas, New Year and two further treats for me and I still have £21 to carry over to this year's challenge. I'm now bumped up to:
#3 £60/£732
Thanks Ellie

£31 banked for December (money only just gone in) painfully slow but it'll be worth it next Christmas!

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

You are very welcome to join us if you would like. It's up to you where you keep your money, some of us use a pot/tin and others save on-line.

Just let me know if you would like a number;)
