NO 16 Saved so far £94.17

Anything above my monthly basic income is getting divided between this years challenges.

Well done.  I have updated the spreadsheet.  That is a lot of challenges.

No 45 - new pot total is £30.06

Thanks ES x

Anna_v No54 I have completed March savings.
I am trying to stay ahead make it a little easier as months go by…Happy saving.
Thanks.

What amount have you saved so far this month? 

I have saved £41.00 plus a few odd coins….Hope I have it right for January, February and March…please tell me if I am incorrect.
Tank you.

You are doing well.  I have you down as having saved up to end of March with £41.00 which is actually slightly above the target.  At this rate you will finish the challenge by Easter

Hello everyone, so many people joining in this year. Thank you @enthusiasticsaver for taking over this for me, I could never have kept up with this amount of people.

#6 adding £70.68 please

Brilliant and well done.  Is that £70.68 for August or just a random amount for January? 

It is a popular challenge this year so glad I could help.

hi
extremely good idea and saving for the future, 
correct me if I'm wrong, but  the latter part of the year you are saving the most money  nov/dec?
i take the other option of saving a penny a day for each date of the month, so you spread out your savings throughout the year
slightly less money at the end, but more affordable for the full year.
cheers

Yes you are right although some of us are doing it in a different  order so the most expensive months will not necessarily be saved at the end of the year.  Personally I intend doing November and December over the next 2 months when there is no council tax.  

Your way sounds different again although if you mean 1p for each date that presumably will mean around £4.65 each month assuming a 31 day month?  Or have I got that wrong? In other  words 1p for the 1st, 2p for 2nd and so on until 31p for  31st? Not a problem though if that works better for you.  Have you already signed up for the challenge?
