    #29 August overpayment made of £86.29.  

    Which I believe brings me to a total of £700 op for the year.  Nowhere near my targetted £4k.

    n I don't know if I should just reduce my target now to £1200, which is realistic, or just keep hoping for the premium bond or lottery win?  :)

  • Hi, newbie here and loving this thread. So motivational. Please can I join for the rest of the year? I have 5 months including August and would like to target overall OP of £700 for 2021. I've just managed to make my first OP of £140 for August!

    Always good to set realistic goals imo - I've lowered the amount now, meaning you're on track :) You can still see your original goal at the right-hand side of the table.
