Although I have another week to go until payday I am declaring £2,000 for February and have submitted the form.
Have a very quiet weekend planned so no additional spending, fridge and cupboard well enough stocked and I am staying at a hotel for a few nights next week with work so food and drinks covered, therefore my intention is to not spend a penny until paid ! We will see...............25/11 – 24/12 NSDs 4/30

Hope it's not too expensive.
I won't be able to update for Feb until the end of the month as my regular saver won't go until 27th, which will be 29th as 27th is a Saturday. I do not understand how it slipped from 16th...

Going well this month.. £250 from switching over two current accounts and should be selling one of my cars on Thursday! Got an engine to sell soon as well and waiting on another £100 from a third account switch.
Trying to keep upbeat but feeling as though it'll take ages before we can look to get a mortgage. Feel like I should enjoy my money more whilst I'm still young (only 23) but feel bad when it comes to spending out anything reasonable, if I knew what I wanted, knowing that its set aside for a reason.#157 - Save £12k in 2016: £12000 / £12000
