Saving for Christmas 2022 - £1 a day challenge

JGB1955

#2 checking in for the first time.  Hope you've all had a good Christmas - now time to plan for 2022!

I've had a bumper month on Prolific - survey after survey, resulting in over £100 earned.  I've also had £15 from TCB.  I'm setting aside the weekly discounts I get from my Sainsbury's Smart Shop too, and 'rounding up' any expenditure on my Starling account.

As a result I think I had better double my target, to £730.  So far - £125/£730 = 17%

Let the good times roll!

Hello, 
I hope everyone has had a lovely Christmas.

I’ve eaten all my Christmas wine gums today so I can use the tub for my money!
I’ve put in £31 for December.

#16 popping by for the first time.  I too will be using an empty sweet jar for my savings and am pleased to report £40 from my dog sitting stashed this morning.  I need to update my signature to show progress and challenges I've joined.

Hello everyone.
Can I join please. I'm going for a total of £550, thinking £50 a month up until November.

I have just transferred my first £50.

Hi.   I did this challenge before and although I dropped out (I think it changed hands, as it were, at some point), have always continued to save my £31 per month into another bank account.  There is still money in the bank, and I also put other bits of money in (last year my mum shared a compensation payout from our old bank with me so that went in there, and we're getting a £250 winter bonus from work this month so that'll be going in there) but I think rejoinig and having the accountability of being back in the challenge will stop me randomly dipping into it! 

Look forward to receiving my new number in due course x

Here's to a prosperous New Year for  everyone.

Hey Everyone ~ Happy New Year 🎉

Update as often as you like, if once a month suits you that is fine, pop in whenever you can, daily, weekly it's up to you no pressure here. I pop in randomly, I need to be here more often but please know that I will allocate numbers and update totals on the first page when I come here.

Amazing start to saving so far guys 🙂 I'm behind at the moment 😐

I think I need to change my target for this year, I seemed to run out of funds early on or maybe I need to be more organised! 

Christmas was a little odd this year. My new granddaughter arrived early so I've been running around and I don't feel I've had much rest, they are getting into the swing of things and are at home now. I'm glad that there's a bank holiday on Monday!

I'll catch you all again soon 🙂
