    Transferred a final £9.62 into my VSP before payday tomorrow and feeling accomplished at saving so much despite massive payouts from my VSP this month :j

    Westie, as I don't expect to transfer any more money over the weekend, I've sent my final January total slightly early :)

    Does anyone else find it slightly addictive putting money into the VSP or is it just me? :o

    Just looked at my bank balance and pinged £8.26 over - I'll soon be on £100 saved up which is pretty good I think for 1 month.

    £10.01 for me for January. Low, but deliberately so - onwards and upwards from here :) And besides, more than 1/12 of my target. I'll update my form for the month Westie :)
