    I've decided the best way this will work for me is to put £15/£16 away mid month when OH gets paid and same again at the end of the month when I get paid.

    Started by trying to save a pound a day but found I kept needing the change !

    I now have the grand total of £16.00 ! I'm happy with that.
    Happy saving everyone
