    Count me in, no preference for number and target of 12 K.  
    Big expenses this year - New carpets, Solar panels and battery, new car.  Hopefully can hit the target by the end of the year.

    Hi!
    Can I join please?  I'd like to set a target of £8000.
    I finally got debt free last year so this year I'm focusing in setting up an emergency fund, looking into a S&S LISA, and all those other things I've neglected for way too long.
    Thanks

    @slowlyfading Can you alter my savings target to £12000 SF?  I have decided to include the monthly savings I make for holidays, car expenses, house expenses etc as I may not spend them in the current 12 month period.

  • £710 is great @lantanna.  Are you declaring early because of the date your payday falls? Ours is the end of the month so I will be declaring then.
