Well, I'm ashamed to say February totally slipped my mind! (Only had that minor thing, the Forum replatform, to get on with...)
Got a bit of catching up to do my end!

How are you getting on? And what are you saving your pots towards? I'd love to hear your plans. Mine will hopefully pay for a very nice holiday! xxx

Congrats on the good progress, CazzieLT!

I'm saving mine towards my £1000 Emergency Fund (EF) challenge - nothing groundbreaking, I'm afraid. Hopefully, after I've achieved that I can repeat it and save towards something more exciting ie. paying to attend an international conference next year. 
Best,

Hi UnseenGhost, just thought I'd let you know that as it's a leap year this year the 366-day 1p challenge total is £671.61 (and not £667.95). Good luck with it. You're doing incredibly well!
Best,

Hi,
Can i join please? I have been doing this challenge since the 1st January via Monzo and IFFTT. I have a grand total of £16.53 at the moment. I don't know if I will manage to complete it to the end. Am hoping to save as much as possible towards kennel fee's for when we go on holiday in September. Thanks

Best,

Thank you! Everyone should have an emergency fund, nothing wrong with that! I had a frugal few months whilst I built up my own after Martin's many talks about having 3-6 months of living costs set aside if anything were to happen. So you're doing the right thing! And I hope you then get to use the money for something you will love and enjoy!

I can see signatures again! I'm so happy!

Payday has arrived so have moved my March payment into my savings pot 😁.  Total now up to £372.71 and yes I’m also doing it backwards.  So pleased the amounts are getting less.  
It is quite tough but I’ve always had to play catch-up with this challenge so being very strict with myself and determined to get it right this year.

Up to £140.42 now. I've been doing the larger amounts whenever I can, but also a mix of some smaller ones. Feeling good about this challenge

Hey everyone!

I had a few days to catch up on but I'm up to today, 4th March, with a total of £214.08 and I have the pennies reserved for the rest of the month, very pleased to still be getting the chunky numbers out of the way! Haven't got a lot of cash to spare at the moment but this helps me to at least be saving something and it's so nice seeing it grow! xxx
