The "Save 12k in 2021" Thread!

No. 48 reporting £1,531 for December. 

That includes a cheeky £50 PB win and the current interest on my S&S ISA which I am planning to report yearly.

Total for the year according to my calculations is £26,256 which puts me at 105% of target. Super pleased with this. 

Have saved about 2/3rds of my take home pay every month which is absolutely amazing. As mentioned in 2022 thread, not sure I'll be able to do the same next year, but will aim for it and see how close I can get. 

Well done to everyone, those who have hit or target and those who have not. Its been a weird old year. 

Off to update the form.

November total was £889.61 and will update the link shortly.

I am going to be well short of the £12k target, but with home improvements and a holiday this year, it was always going to be tough. I have joined in the make £10 a day thread to help me keep motivated and encourage me to make a bit extra

I will join the thread for 2022 and hopefully I will start to get a lot more in dividends by this time next year.

Breakdown is as follows:
DD JISA - £50
DS JISA - £50
Sharesave Scheme - £156
Sharematch Scheme - £30
S&S ISA - £526.72

December total - £812.72
2021 total - £14,000/£12k (116.67%)

Exceeded my target by £2,000 this year so setting this as my new baseline for next

Easy update form updated!

£2720 this month - thankfully received some money my OH owed me for the house costs and annual bonus + some overtime really helped push me ahead. 
My total savings are now above the goal I set myself for the year so I am really really happy. I'm looking forward to the 2022 thread.

I have finally filled in the forms for all the missing months. I have been reading all the replies but haven't posted. I am nowhere near my target but I have managed to save consistently most months. Fingers crossed next year will go better.

Last post of the year! Looking forward to 2022, overpaying the mortgage and trying to keep on top of savings too…

November: £1400
December: £1450

£2000 for December - I'll adjust any slight changes  that may happen before the end of the month in next Jan's entry. That makes £32,000 this year.

See you all on the next thread; happy new year and health and wealth for 2022 to everyone. Thanks as ever to Slowly for running this and to Geoffers for the spreadsheet archives.

# 22 declaring the following:

£417.16 October
£417.16 November
£417.16 December

Am late declaring these sums as I have had a torrid few months. I haven't reached my yearly target (again) but doing this challenge does help to keep me focussed to at least try to reach it. Will be joining the 2022 challenge, for sure.
