    Hi, sorry I haven't checked in for a while. I added £30 for March and April, and I've added £40 for May because I'm saving cash and only had 2 x £20 notes. I've also added a bit extra sometimes, but I've forgotten that now so won't count it.

    Official total is #12 £192/£365.


    Thank you for running the challenge and updating @kdalwayskint. Well done on savings everyone.

    #2 signing in with £600/£730.  Loads more money earned via Prolific.  We have a BIG holiday planned for late 2023 so, when I reach my target for 2022, all of my excess money will be going that way. 

    It's all from surveys, or Nectar points, or Top Cashback.  Come on - you can do it - put your back into it!

    (Happy Jubilee weekend everyone)!
