    Well done Betharooni, good start to the new year, don't forget to use the update form, either each time you transfer or at the end of the month so I can update the spreadsheet...

    Is it OK to post any dribs and drabs money transfers on here as I go along and then just update the form once at the end of the month or would that confuse you, Westie and/or make extra work for you?

    Thank you for my number :)

    I'm going to make Thursdays my 'transfer' day as its the day I generally sort bank stuff.

    Got started with £8.61 - transferred to savings account
      To those who are given much, much is expected

        £2025 in 2025 = £680.60
          Food Budget £180/9.30.
            Fiver Friday #13 £35
          1. Planned to update on here and the form monthly but I'm sure to forget something as I've set myself all sorts of little mini challenges and have different saving pots (cash and virtual) for different things. I'm bound to get myself into a real tangle with all the bits of money moving around so think it's safest if I update this VSP challenge every Sunday evening;)

            After week 1 of January I've now added £8.94 to my VSP account. Not much but every little helps:j

            Hi Finally Solvent,

            Of course once a month update form is fine, and you can post as many times as you like, but I only update the spreadsheet from the update form, but always read all the posts, to encourage and kick those up the bum that need it,

            Whatever is easier for you, don't forget that you are now £8.94 richer then you were last week :o)
