    Hi

    I can't believe how well our savings pot is going. We are at £157/£730 already and it's not even the end of January yet :j:j:j:j:j

    We've done so well because we stocked up on massively reduced meat and food in the post Christmas sale at our local supermarket. Hence the grocery bill this month has been very low. I'm hoping the success will trickle into February, but I doubt it will keep up at the level we've managed for the whole of January :D

    We did the same and it's made a huge difference to our grocery bill. January is always the hardest month for us as OH's work dries up and we have to rely on my salary;)

    Great savings total and as you say we're still in January:)

    Good morning everyone,

    Almost at the end of January and look at those totals, we're all doing so well. Those of us who have done this challenge before know that it really is worthwhile tucking those ££'s away and you will be amazed at how quickly they grow;)

    Totals all updated where requested and numbers allotted to our newest members.

    Keep it up everyone:cool:
