Virtual Sealed Pot Challenge 2016

Just went to transfer money (I normally do so on a Monday but as this Monday is February and I have a limit per month on the savings account I opened I wanted this to go in January's amount). But HSBC is down. I've transferred £117.02 into my HSBC current account ready though.
This brings my January total to £242.71 which I am very impressed with. I'm glad I decided to do the daily challenge backwards so that the interest will build quicker and it's getting the higher amounts out now whilst I'm more motivated and not thinking about Christmas.My debt free diary

Can I please ask you to send me a total figure for the end of January as soon as you are able too (you know you will no longer transfer anything more for the month) or by Sunday 31st at the latest.
This is so I can make sure that the spreadsheet is up to date before we start February, and I dont have any of januarys figures showing on Februarys update sheet....
Thanks to Bobobski, Rdone, Mumof2, crimson.addict, and selene, who have all given me their totals for the end of January already.
On Monday we should be all able to see how much we have saved collectively over the last month...
How exciting wil that be?

I actually have more in there because DH got a tax rebate of £250 and I have siphoned that across but not including it in my total as most of it will need to come out again when we get his accountants bill.The person who moves a mountain begins by carrying small stones.
