The "Save 12k in 2020" Thread!

Gizmo70

#25 reporting for May. Still job hunting but no luck as yet. Managed to save £218 for this month. Have some dividends due next month so that should help boost my savings but car insurance, MOT and health insurance are all due in the months following so that will probably reduce my chance to save.

#72 reporting in for month of May with £515 saved this month. The lock down is in a good way helping to save more money. Due to no holidays so far, we have even managed to save my wifes full salary for 2 months now. Thats an additional £3000 which is great for her. I do expect the month of July to be a lot harder, we do hope to be able to go on a holiday we still have booked. 

My year total so far is now £3978, which is nearly 50 % of my target of £8000 for the year.

Thank you slowlyfading for all your hard work

Good luck to @Gizmo70 and any others looking for work at this time. 

Lockdown has been kind to me, and this month I have saved my highest monthly total in three years of this challenge. Form submitted with over £1,100 of savings. Thanks for the motivation everyone.

#47  reporting in. I had a further S&S bounce back this month, and Corona no spend means I saved £5284 this month. Crikey!!

Good luck with the job hunting Gizmo70 - I'm joining you on thursday. My last day in my job on Weds and nothing lined up yet. I have my kids at home still though so it might be a bit of a wait until I am sorted.
