Glad to see you back @Makingabobor2, and it's never 'just' whatever your PAD is. It all adds up, and you can pad as much or as little as you want to and as often or infrequent as your circumstances allows so never be disheartened by what you're achieving. It's all adding up.
My PADs are
£10.23 to the Debt Buster
£4 to the £2 challenge
£0.74 to the penny challenge
£14.97 total

Joining in late as just joined the forums… I don’t have much income so PADing 1p daily to savings, then make a payment when there’s at least £10 to debt.
going to see the other challenges to see what else is doable. I only need to clear £1000 😊 hope your PADs gone well this year.1 -
