  • Hi.  Can I please join for 2021 with a small target of £1200 as have lots of renovation work planned but still want to chip away at the mortgage.  
    Thanks 😊
  • I would love to join for 2021 if you will have me. I am going to try for £10000 for 2021. I am currently number 80.
  • Hi Julicorn, 
    Could I be put down for £2000 target this year. Hard to believe that is now the maximum op I can make!!
    I am number 116 but if a space is available less than that I'll take one of them.

    Many thanks for all your work!!

  • Hello Julicorn,
    I’m new 👋
    After watching the challenge last year, I’ve decided to give it a go! Could you please give me a spot and a target of £5000 please? 
    Thank you very much x

    Hi Julicorn, thanks for running again!

    I would love to take part again please. If I can keep no. 86 that would be great. 

    Things will be a bit different next year as I'll be on maternity leave. My original projection said we could overpay 23k in 2021 but I think that's probably a bit hopeful so I'll go for 18k as a stretch target please.

    Thanks :)

    Edited - changed to £4,000 target

    Hi Julicorn

    I did some babysteps last year - I was number #150 but am happy to take any number.

    I am aiming for £4,000 overpayments next year.

    Thank you, Sandy

    ps, have revised my target down to £4,000 and will be putting some money aside for a 'car fund'.
    Thanks for joining again, I've bumped you up to #29! :)

    Hi @julicorn; I'd love to take part. Happy to have a new number or keep the same one.
    I think my target for 2021 is £6000

    Hello,

    Many thanks for organising x

    Hi, can I join please? New adventures on the horizon, and big plans. But we need to be quite frugal, while still enjoying life!
    I will pop back and edit later with targets.
    Of course, and welcome! I've given you #40, and will add your target once you have decided :)

    Hi Julicorn and all
    No.45 here. Can I stay please? This thread was instrumental in me staying on track this past year and making it across the finish line :)
    I would like to keep up the (not quite so severe) frugal ways and build up our savings (with an eye on retirement). Could I set my target as £14,000 please?

    Hi julicorn, 
    Could I please join too? Was a little late in the game to join this year so hoping to start 2021 with a target of £2021. Hopefully will manage to shave some off renovation debts and shuffle some into savings too 🙂
    Welcome to the challenge! You've got #41 :) 

    New lower number please? ;-) 
    Target of £4660
    #42 is all yours :)
