    My update for February is £935.34. I've submitted the form.


    I'm pleased with this as I wasn't expecting to save so much in February. Some really good efforts in this thread!

    February was an expensive month, car insurance & MOT and a new front door!
    £747.13 saved though.
  • Feb finally updated £610, higher than expected but March is going to be expensive as I pay off a holiday that I'll be on in the summer. Last big spend of the year and the BF just got a payrise so will match my savings going forward in theory so that's nice.

    Happy saving folks

    #18 reporting £1305.04 for March


    Until this year, I always just kept all of my savings in one Halifax e-saver account but figured I should move it around to maximise interest but now I have accounts with Virgin, Tesco, Vanguard, Ratesetter....plus I started matched betting about 2 weeks ago. So far I have made profit of around £150 but I feel so chaotic and stressed with cash all over the place and in a bunch of different bookie accounts :eek:
    Saved so far - £28,890.97

    I know what you mean, Doymayne - I've got about 10 current bank accounts each with a few grand in, to get the higher interest rate. God help my executor sorting all that out if I cark it anytime soon :D

    Oh for the days when you could just bung it all in a single building society at 6%!
