Hi all, I hope I'm not too late to join, but only just found this group!
Love the idea of saving with the idea of actually spending the cash on something Christmas-y at the end
I don't have a number yet (any chance I could get given one?), but my target is £700 and I've just put in £150, I'll be putting in £2/day from now on
Thanks everyone!4 -

Hi all, I'm currently manually transferring the daily amount from my everyday spending account to my saving account (I use Starling).
Has anyone got a better way of doing this? I know I'll end up forgetting at some point!
Thanks!
