HI Slowlyfading, could I please amend my target from £12k to £10k? Decided to (finally!) learn to drive this year, and having researched the price of lessons and tests etc, I've realised I won't be able to meet my initial target at all - £10k is much more realistic Save £12k in 2022 = £3705.97/ £7,500 (49%)
Save £12k in 2021 #76 = £11,857.21/ £10,000 (118%)0 -

I thought I was doing OK until a couple of invoices dropped on the mat. I've now got to take 319.99 off my Jan total. I'm going to wait until the end of the month before I post the total because I need to see the final savings on the household spends.0
