I have just coloured in £2.48 and £2.52 and added a further £5 to my savings space so now up to £365. 

Spreadsheet updated for the week and collectively we have saved £14366.29.  It will be interesting to see how much we get to by the end of the year. 

This is amazing enthusiasticsaver!
Great work, everyone!!

Sorry I have been missing for quite some time. Life gets very busy sometimes and I don't have time to catch up.

I have still been putting money in the tin each month and colouring in the chart, and so far up until the end of June I have the following:

Jan £52.20 (plus £2.05 to round the end figure up)
Feb £26.94
March £45.60
April £53.84
May £58.21
June £55.40

Total so far is £297.24

#32 sorry I’ve been out of touch, I’ve been saving the old fashioned way, in a Jar that now has £300 in 20s in! Think I may be a tiny bit behind and will save this month but having august off with the kids so will try to save what I can that month!
number 32 £300 

thank you x

Hi everyone, here is my Friday update.

This week my random number picker gave me:
26, 248, 298, 193, 281, 314 and 149 = 1509 so £15.09 going into the pot.

#45 new total is £343.13

I now have less than £5 in my current account and don't get paid until 27th eeeek. I have one more weekly update before then. Going to have to get creative and:

a) not spend any money (eg. take food to work)
b) transfer whatever's left in current account into 365 savings account next Friday and cross off random numbers to make up to that number.

Thanks as ever to @enthusiasticsaver for running this challenge.

Goodness you will need to get creative then to survive until 27th without spending. Good luck. I look forward to seeing how you get on.  I think you must be my most regular poster though and seem very organised.

Why thank you for the accolade @enthusiasticsaver it's only because I post weekly.

Here is my Friday update - bit of an odd week. As previously posted I am very low on funds. HOWEVER I remembered I'd sold a few bits on Bay of E and was due £14.31 so transferred that across to my current account on Friday. I needed £5.95 for Fat Club on Saturday morning. Still needed to be creative and organised, especially on my two office days. Took all food/snacks on Monday and remembered on Wednesday that I had a Spark$ voucher for a free croissant, so that was breakfast along with lunch from home. No other money spent.

Random number picker this week has given me:
30, 201, 307, 96, 275, 58 and 239 = 1206 so £12.06 going into the pot.

#45 new total is £355.19

Bank balance now only £1.09 and payday is next Friday eeek. Will use joint account cash for Fat Club tomorrow. Am only in the office on Wednesday next week, so can eat from home fridge and cupboards. 

Thanks for running the challenge #enthusiasticsaver
