Deposited £1000 at the beginning of the year f(from Dividends). Have since drip fed money into my new RS - second payment of £250 plus £150+£25+£20 into the ISA, from my salary. As, I have decided that I am not going to do any non essential shopping this month.Only money left in my account is for online yoga classes.Will submit the form at the end of the month as I am waiting on another RS to mature in two weeks time plus I am hoping to draw down more dividends, before the month is out, to buy some PB. (PB - February is the shortest time to wait for them to be entered into the draw).2025 Fashion on a ration 0/66 coupons

Thanks for adding me to the list Slowlyfading
I've saved £305.57 so far this month - a sleepy start to the year but I always knew it would be. Once January is over I should be able to save more.
I'll update the form like I normally do at the end of each month, although I've got the same problem as others seem to have - it says I don't have access to the easy update form.Save £12k in 2022 = £3705.97/ £7,500 (49%)
Save £12k in 2021 #76 = £11,857.21/ £10,000 (118%)5 -
