    Thanks for the advice up above I have started a save the change thing on the lloyds bank account. It rarely gets used but figure every little helps and I have also started rounding the account down on a weekly basis same as for the main account. Update sent in and while I think of it I might just go and do the same for the barclays account so can round down there. Think this challenge is making me slightly ocd about zero ending totals on my accounts, lol.

    Can I join in please? Hoping to save money towards Christmas for this year :)

    I'll be rounding down to the nearest £5 (so if £36.70 will put in £1.70 - if that makes sense).

    Also can we change each week - so on weeks that i am doing better money wise can I change it to the bears £10?

    I'm putting all saving money into my/our emergency fund.

    Having trouble to juggle all my saving goals & wants and decided to take it a step a time by saving up for one thing at a time.
