Hello, could I join for 2019 please? I’ve been able to save and stick to a budget for years but I think it’s time to up my game a little. I’m aiming for £10,000.

Welcome to the thread, Elle! SlowlyFading usually puts a call out late Dec to join the next year's challenge, and we all pitch in then with our targets. We'll then get our number for the year

Hi I'll start the thread for 2019 in December sometime, so people who want to join can post on there

#106 declared £2100 for November and reaching my saving aim for the year !
With additional £8,000 into company pension it has been tough going,

Next year will be harder as I intend changing my car.

For those interested (AsgardFI) I am looking to FIRE (2.5 years to retirement, hopefully)

Declaring £500 savings for October and £500 for November - completely forgot to come back in October and update.

I am now one £500 payment away from achieving my goal of £6,000 this year. Bring it on! Whoop whoop!

Hi all, I've been AWOL for a while for various reasons (mostly a trying time at home - loved ones suffering with mental health issues sucks big time).

Still been saving away though and just updated for the last 3 months. Lovely to see new people already looking to sign up for 2019! I'm on track to meet target (can't remember what I set but know I'm on track for what I expected to achieve).

Well done to everyone who has stuck at it again this year

Really happy to hear all about the savings targets being hit or within touching distance.

Mine are going to be a bigger stretch than expected. I took some time off work for my mental wellbeing, and decided to book a holiday as well. Then the MOT was more than expected. I am owed about £700 between my brother and the tax man, so that might help if it appears, but otherwise it is looking like I might miss my target.
