Hello I am new
Can you add me please? I am aiming for £4000 in my own account and £4000 in my joint account used for billing. (3 months and 3 months so 6 months total)
I currently have £0 and £1600. The joint one is never down to £0 and will probably fill up first

Welcome to the challenge.
I've added you to the spreadsheet, you are #73 and started you off with a goal of £4000. We can increase this as you reach it or whenever you're ready.
Please do drop by and keep us updated on how you are getting on.
Keep on keeping on.

Got April school holidays and car MOT coming up so I suspect I won't make much progress in the short-term but at least I have an aim!1 -
Number 11 here! Haven't been on here for absolutely ages! My goal is still £6,000 but a lot has happened in the past few years (!) and I am at £3207.08 at the moment.1

#68 checking in with some bad news....had to break in to EF but that is what it is there for, so I don't feel too guilty. I am now back down to £60/£1000....so it did take a big hit as I was on £240. Never mind, onwards and upwards as I know I can do it a lot quicker now as my income will increase substantially from June and these challenges really keep me focused
