Just checking in to say that September and October should all be up to date now, let me know if I've missed anything
Fantastic effort everyone, and well done especially to everyone who's hit their target for this year already!

#4 checking in with my usual £125 OP
I’ve been ‘offsetting’ as I had a fixed rate mortgage that was a lower rate than my Regular Savings account, but that ends at the start of next year. Fortunately, at the end of the fixed rate, I’ll be able to use the ‘offset’ sum I’ve built up to repay a chunk off the (admittedly quite small) mortgage balance which will hopefully mitigate some of the increase in MP due to the increase in interest rate - well that’s the plan, anyway 🤞🏻

#61 here checking in with a £60 overpayment for October. Rather more expenditure this year than expected, some of which was necessary (replacing old kit), some of which was not (new bicycle). Expect to do more next year, but will also probably set a more realistic target.
