worked out my savings this month and it totals £3,698.33. That’s boosted by £1000 gift. I might even double my original savings goal at this rate! 🤞3

Form completed with a slightly disappointing figure of less than half what my monthly target is, but I did have to buy a new tent to go camping, save money towards going caravanning, and have emergency gas works done to rescue a pigeon. Good job there was an emergency fund! Blooming expensive pigeon though!Save £12k in 2025 #33 £2531.77/£5000 (If this carries on I might have to up my target!)

Morning all, no. 10 here reporting a bumper August update of £2,099.37, bringing my yearly total so far to £8,708.36 ... spent hardly anything in August basically. There will be a couple of repair bills between now and the end of the year but I still have high hopes of meeting my target
