    Bit late to report in this month but it’s worth it as I’m (we) are going to be paying in the March, April, May and June monthly amounts which total’s £147.01 …and as that’s for each of us that gives us a grand total of….

                                                   #86 Topscooby £294.02 for June

    Not sure what to do for the rest of the year as that is the total amount for each month this year completed!… A full six months ahead of schedule o:) Any suggestions???  >:)
    That is a great result.  My suggestion is you keep going and maybe increase your target? 
    Thanks  @enthusiasticsaver  Definitely going to keep going…and we’ve decided to see if we can save the same amount again, that we have saved so far this year  :o ….wish us luck lol!
