mummytummy

Thank you for adding me slowlyfading I did really well on this challenge last year, if I can get the small target I've set this year I'll be a happy bunny

Hi, can you add me in for £6000, sorry it's so late in the year. I've just cleared nearly £6000 worth of debt, have been in debt or close to it for most of my youth.

I have a emergency fund account
LISA
Stocks and Shares ISA

I'll be splitting my savings between the three but will update this thread with the totals saved as a whole.

I'm currently sitting at £729 For June, can you please update me

Thanks a lot!!!128512;

Does anyone else on a zero hours contract get mid-month blues? I don't know how much I will be paid at the end of the month, so I don't know how much can go to savings. I usually try to book some work when I get the blues or get impatient to save some money. Does anyone else have any remedies?

Reporting £1151 for June - not as much as normal but paying for holidays takes up a bit £££

Luckily my NS&I bonuses and other dividends have kept me above £1k!

Keep going guys!

You're on the spreadsheet now; number 145.

Spreadsheet updated

Just a little note - I've had a couple of messages demanding that the spreadsheet be updated. I am sorry that it isn't done daily, but I just don't have the time at the moment.

It will be done, and I will try to get online more often.

Woah there now. You get online as often as you please. Your family come first, not internet strangers.
Thank you for the work you do, it is appreciated.

That's ridiculous SF - this is your challenge; you run it how you like! If people's savings will suffer because you didn't update the spreadsheet for a couple of days then the problem is most certainly on their end, not yours.


Thanks as ever for all your hard work :beer:
