I have just filled my final envelopes for 2023.
I have stuffed 29, 40, and 50. 🎈
My calculations make my total £1003 which is £375 short of the total. But i'm delighted to have made it to £1000. Especially since I started in May. 
Thank you so much LMD for running this challenge i am looking for ward to doing it again next year.

Hi Everyone, I have reached my target with the challenge.  So I am not going to pay anymore this year.  I need to now pay the balance off my credit card which I used for Xmas related spends.

This has been a great way for me to pay for Christmas. 

Thanks LMD for organising xx

Lelly you have totally smashed it! Don't forget you've also added 3x bonus payments after the target was met.
