Hi all
#38 reporting for August. £1776.72
Abit of a higher cost month. Hopeful that will improve over the last few months of the year.

Dropping to to report that I have spent most of my savings... on my house deposit. Sent them across to my solicitor and hoping to complete on the 11th. 

Good luck in your house move. I hope it all goes smoothly.

Hello Slowly, #141 managed to put aside £350 for September - hoping to add more to it later in the month.  Thank you for the efforts!  Cheers.

Hello SF and fellow savers, 

#51 reporting in a very megre £2 gain on S&S ISA for September. It was looking better but one dodgy day knocked a bit of value of it. No where near this years savings goal but will take the £2 as a gain. Year total £1840.47 / £6000 saved in 2020 to date.

#26 reporting a big fat £0.00 for September. We had some renovations done this month, all on the credit card so likely will be a smaller amount for October as well.

Howdy MSE’ers,

#42 reporting £1299.63, taking me just shy of 69% of my target... just about on track with three months to go!! Form submitted

In nerdy money saving news, I started a savings ladder after buying a house last summer, using fixed term regular savers with staggered maturity dates, every four months. As sad as it will be to see my Virgin 3% Saver come to an end, it matures at the end of October and Im looking forward to dumping a substantial wedge into my LISA so the bonus can help me on my way to my target!

no 15 declaring £1050.09 saved for September.
Running total is £9464.47. October, November and December will be leaner months savings wise as I start spreading the cost of Christmas out, but as long as I max out my HTB ISA I will meet my target for the year end.
Many thanks!
