    My total for January was £1975... one more payday before baby is due, then things are going to be a bit different while I try to survive on maternity allowance. The main goal will be to try not to go backwards!

    £600 added to savings from my personal current account yesterday so £2k saved in February and £5700 overall.

  • #22 reporting £297.53 for January.

    3 unexpected and costly vet visits plus helping out daughters with car and house repairs respectively were limiting factors.

    Hopefully a shorter month in February will help me get back on track, unless energy bills eat in to things even more.

    Welcome @[Deleted User] to the saving challenge. I'm sure that @slowlyfading will be along soon to issue you with a number. When you are ready to let us know your total for the month a) post your information on here b) fill in an update form (Google doc form), the link will be on page one at some point.
