    Quidco payment received. £1.61 potted as it went into my FlexDirect which sits full at 2.5k, so account won't be being touched again this week.

    2 more accounts to do at the end of the week, so should be a good VSP week this week.

    £7.80 transferred yesterday for the weekly challenge and £14.30 for the daily challenge taking it to £22.10 for the week. Will send an update form now.

    Well done on everyone's amounts, it's amazing how quick little bits add up.

    I am currently doing the weekly and daily challenge. Does anyone know of a monthly challenge to do as well?

    Haven't heard of any; you could always start one.

    I do the Christmas savings with work each year so I may stop doing that this year and use that as my monthly challenge instead. Better to be in an account I can get interest on instead of not.

    rdone: Do you do have any regular savers? that could be your monthly challenge.

    I have a few regular savers which I use for my 12k in 2016 challenge.

    No which is why I wanted to start this challenge as my money just sat in my current account. Haven't really been able to find anything interesting online so I'll add my Christmas savings amount and round down my salary to the nearest £50.

    £4.12 for me this week. That may or may not be it for me this month - the car trouble has completely thrown off my budgeting (maths-wise, I'm not in the red) so I may wait until payday to work out what I'm doing!!
