    • I have just pushed £800 over to our joint savings account as the final payment for November.  That makes a total of £2050 for this month so the savings pot is starting to recover after I decimated it for my new car.  I still have to find £2000 to reach my target for the year so that is £400 a week for the last 5 weeks of the year.  I will start up a new thread for 2024 in a few weeks time.

      Will be joining in again next year but as I retire beginning of the year, it will have to be a flexible figure until I've worked out money pots in greater detail.

      I will also be joining again next year and like Jellybaby I am planning on retiring, but later in the autumn.

      Pension day today so I have moved £500 into our joint savings and £200 into our regular saver. So a total of £700 for December so far.  I am hoping to add more near the end of the month.  Spreadsheet updated.
