    My account is on 437 and something. Really good way to save! So glad I did it backwards.

    Got rid of some loose change I had in my purse so have managed to add another £3.08 to my pot. That means that #26 has reached £120.27.

    I'm way behind where I should be by now but will easily catch up when I get to the lower numbers as been saving my shrapnel for the higher value ones. And sometimes it takes an age to get one of those.

    Note to self: keep potting, no matter how little :). Rome wasn't built in a day.

    Still going, if a bit slow, but #26 has increased to £133.92. Got less outgoings in June so should make a significant increase this month to pull me back in line with where I should be :j

    Hello

    I am following this challenge and I have unofficially joined in (as at 8th June). I would love to join officially next year if it's still going. I'm finding it quite motivating for me to put savings away and mark them off the sheet!

    Keep going everyone :)
    Mortgage at 12/07/2022 = £175,000
    Mortgage today = £161,690.76
    300 271 payments to go.
