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

Yes, it's difficult sometimes to have the change when you are using a tin for your savings. Putting away in two halves sounds like a good plan:D

Morning everyone,
What fantastic totals already and we're still in January;)
My tin is starting to fill up again now and is a little heavier. I love counting up all my ££'s but then feel a bit deflated when my tin is empty again:o...but it hasn't taken long for it to start adding up;)
Totals updated where requested;)
