#46 declaring £645.05 for January. It's a good start to the year, although it does include interest accrued on my savings, so I'll see what I can manage to save for next month.0

#58 reporting in for the end of January.
Saved just £466 but it's a positive number which makes me very happy. We had a bit of a wobble at the end of january when our little Clio died and we 'panic bought' a new car. We'd been thinking about an adventure van for a while to use for exploring Scotland so ended up with a peugeot partner tepee - basically a van, but with 5 seats and windows all round. Obviously used, but managed to pay for the car, insurance and tax (well my half as I'm sharing the car with the BF) all from end of December pay with a tiny bit left over.
February onwards will hopefully be much betterSave 12K in 2018 #20 - £20,890/£18,000 (116%) November £1950

Slow start for me this month. This is because I put all of my buffer money into savings instead of leaving it in my bank account, but I'm learning to live on minimal funds this year, or at least that is the aim!
I'm hoping to put around £400 pounds into savings this month but I may have to wait until the end to see how much is left.
I'm loving all the update though, it's very inspiring.
