The "Save 12k in 2017" Thread!

slowlyfading

So, the title is pretty self explanatory, but this is the place to be in 2017

In 2017, the aim is to save £12k (or, any other amount if you like!) from 1st January 2017 til 31st December 2017. I know it's early, but it gives you the time to plan for how you are going to do it!

Evening,

Please can I be added to this challenge? As it will be 2017 I'll aim to save £2017 (split between my savings and my sons).

JMR14

I'd like to join and my target would be £14,000, thanks.

darkidoe

I am going for 15k this time! Can't wait to start!

Duckyduck

Can I sign up for £12k please.

I'm intending on replacing my car this year so probably won't meet the year end target but need something to keep me focused on £1000-£1200 per month.

[Deleted User]

Hi SF. Please put me down for £12k. Thanks for the shiny new thread!

Wentthedaywell?

Me too please! I'll try for £10k, but it's a funny year of retiring and a big lump sum, then much reduced money so I may review this later.
