    Count me out for next year.
    My number was 144.

    Sorry to see you're not joining again beanie, I always loved your £11/£22/£33/... (remember, we call them "booze numbers" in German :D ) payments. Thank you for the heads up though! :heart2:
  • Hi,

    Can I please join??? I would like to eradicate £5,000 from my mortgage next year.
    Any number would be great.

    I've just gone through the most recent pages of the 2018 thread as well, and marked everyone who's already said they want to take part again next year - apologies if I missed anyone!

    Miss D Meanour, utopiah, lindez, chocoholic_chick, cod3, jackieblack, Miss Pinky, anna42hmr, mortgage destroyer - I've kept all your numbers the same as 2018 for now - let me know if any of you would like a lower one.

    Roxie, I've given you number 33 now. Could you let me know your target for 2019 as well?

    greent, thanks for already mentioning your target of £5k, I've added you back in with the same number as well. :)

    Cherryfudge, I've logged you as keeping #30, and with a target of £2,880.

    life is sweet, I've signed you up again with your new number 11 (hope that works for you) and a goal of £15k :)

    wishingthemortgaheaway - I've got you down with your current number #162, would you maybe like a lower one? Please let me know your goal as well. :)

    teameffort - same as above, I've logged you as participating again. Would you like a lower number than 143, and could you let me know your goal as well?

    frugal_lass, I've added you in as #19 for this challenge (how fitting, 19 in 2019!). Could you let me know your target too?


    Thanks everyone!

    Welcome Bounty123! I've given you number 23 - shouldn't be too difficult to remember with that name :D

    Hi julicorn,

    Thank you for picking up the reins from HiddenShadow and pawlala.

    Could I join again this year please?
    My previous number was #45 but I don't mind keeping/leaving the same number and am happy to have the most suitable for you & the spreadsheet.

    Going to go bigger this year and double my target to reflect my focus so aiming for a cheeky £2000 OP for 2019. (with a bit of determination, perhaps I'll exceed it and get to £2019 for 2019 :D )

    Thanks again
    Dobbi

    Thanks Dobbibill! Keeping #45 works well, so I've kept it as that for now :)
    Let's see if you can stretch to £2019 for 2019, I like it! :D
  • Please can I join! I've got a target of £10,000 to be a combination of overpayments and offset savings.

    Good luck everyone and thank you for heading up the challenge julicorn.

    Hiya Julicorn, I'm a newbie. Any number is fine. My goal for 2019 is £2000 as I'm aiming for a bit more balance in my plans next year. Thanks! ChotaPeg

    Hi Betterthanever! I've assumed you're ok with a new number and given you #29, hope that works for you. :)
