Just realised I havent submitted my totals since Feb - so just added the last 4 months worth to the sheet. Half way through and I'm on target for my £6k aim. Currently sitting at £3102.96. Still with the round numbers!

Very pleased with that

Congratulations slowly fading! Very exciting news :j
#186 declaring a total amount of £500.42 for June! A combination of needing new glasses and paying the full amount for our holiday to the Lake District in September meant that the bank balance took a hit! Next month should be much better as I'll get paid for last months overtime and will work more overtime this month :money:

Hi no 121 reporting in had unexpected car and bike repairs this month so only managed £169.96. The good thing is I had the money already saved so I didn't need to borrow. You got to think of the positives ��It is the job that is never started that takes the longest to finish. Tolkien.Save 12k in 2025 No 18 365 1p challenge 2025 No 20

Evening all, no. 38 here, I have been so flat out with a project I have been working on I haven't had time to work out my updates for May or June until today. For May it was a negative number, -£94.53, but for June much better, £1,190.65, bringing my yearly total so far to £8,571.97.
