  • I'm in! Thank you for organising.
    Welcome.  You are number 73. 
    Thank you! I'm new here - is that why I can't have a signature? Is there a minimum number of posts before I can get one? What info do I need to provide you and when for you to update the tracker?

    Thanks in advance :smile:
    I think it was 5 or 6 posts when I was able to update my signature. Not sure about how to colour them though :D
    Happy saving!

    You can edit your signature in your profile.  As far as I know you can get one immediately.  

    You just need to give me your number and the amount for the month in bold each month or weekly if that is better.  I won't be able to keep up with daily updates though. You also need to let me know if you are saving going forward, backward or random.  Have you read the first post as to how the challenge works?

    Good to see lots of you are making a start.  

    If you want me to update the spreadsheet can you please let me know your reference numbers and totals for the month and which month you want me to update depending on whether you are going forward or backward or random.   Please do this in bold type so I don't miss it.

    Not sure if it would be easier but it is certainly a good idea.  I use the rounding up function with Starling but put it towards bills rather than this challenge.
