Belatedly reporting £1,947 for August, mainly £1,200 from the eventual sale of my old car.
Spent more time moving money around to try to get the best interest rates available but now thinking Zopa and their boosted pots is the way to go other than my monthly savers. That additional 0.25% I may be able to generate is not going to make that much of a difference for the level of savings I have!

#5 reporting in for August. I managed to save £1,501 for this month (form updated) which means I am still on target for the year (66%). My repairs & replacements pot this time went down £100 this month, as £450 went out to cover the car service, MOT and car insurance (otherwise it would have been a £350 increase). I'm having some roof work being done in October, so a chunk more will be going out around then, plus I'm hoping to have more planned works done this year (though finding time to get quotes is difficult).
