Pay day here today and I'm going to struggle to hit the £1k mark this month although I am putting £600 into shares, but don't count that for this challenge. I'm glad that I'm a little ahead already and hope to get back on track for April.Spend less now, work less later.0

Update for March
Total Saved = £102.25 against my target of -£100.
YTD = £-174.83 against a target YTD of -£300. So I'm ahead which is a real achievement for me.
One more month left of OH being on maternity leave but this month she is on zero pay so it will be tough with council tax and my student loan payments starting again (I've had a couple of months without paying either).
I'm looking forward to seeing how everybody else fairs now the year has well and truly started.
Happy Saving.You should pay attention to the needs of the moment - otherwise there is no future. But to ignore the future is foolish - living solely for the moment leaves nothing for when the next moment arrives.0 -
