    I echo that, well done everyone who has updated!
    Save £12k in 2025 #2 I saved £14,660.97 of £6000 or 244.35% of my target. The 2026 Save £12k in 2026 thread is here
    OS Grocery Challenge in 2025 I finished the year at £2880.99/£3000 or 96.03% of my annual spend so I am sticking with a £3000 annual budget for 2026

    Well done everyone. I've slightly exceeded my target so very happy with that. I deduct my savings from my mortgage balance because my savings are on higher interest rate for 12 months than my mortgage so will physically pay that amount from mortgage in 12 months. I'm also overpaying mortgage from April at 500 per month so I am hoping to exceed target next quarter. :j

    Thanks Trix for doing this it is very motivating. Have a great weekend all.
