    Number #76 reporting £1038.22 for January. I genuinely can't believe I've managed so much this month.
    February will be harder as I have some family birthdays to prepare for, and our quarterly gas/ electricity bill is due in a couple of weeks. I'm glad i've had a good start to the year.
    I'll submit my update via the form shortly :)

  • So happy to be off and running this year after smashing our total out of the park last year. It turned in to a real team effort for us last year in what was our first attempt. 

    #16 reporting £1014 which is a little bit short of what we had hoped for but we had a couple of hundred on our credit cards from Christmas and New Year etc.

    Hi All! 
    Declaring for January at £1027.28. £800 straight into the pot from wages, the rest from budget savings and unspent contingencies. Quite pleased as I was expecting to struggle more!

    No. 55 reporting £2150 for January.
    Broken down that's: £1000 to S&S ISA, £300 mortgage overpayment, £250 SIPP, £600 to cash savings. Hopefully my maths is right!
