Morning all.

I have managed to add a further £111.97 into the OP savings pot today made up of £15.58 from FB Marketplace sale and £96.39 from claims to Royal Mail for lost parcels. 

My total now stands at £10336.77/£81700 = 12.65% 

Less than 0.5% to go to reach my next full percentage

Me again - sorry for hogging the thread.

I've just transferred £97.82 into the OP savings account made up of £80.92 from FB Marketplace sales (after paypal fees) and £17 from my son not having a guitar lesson as his teacher is gigging in Spain this week.

This means my total is now up to £10434.59/£81700 = 12.77% 

Slow progress but at least I am another 0.1% closer to where I want to be and only another £186.41 needed to reach the next whole percentage

It's me again and I feel guilty for posting again but if I don't declare when I pay the money in then I will forget and my totals will be all wrong so sorry

I've just added £38.15 into the OP savings account made up of my part time job earnings (£31.50) and £6.65 from my website sale last week  

My total is now £10472.74/£81700 = 12.81% 

Small progress but progress is progress and it moves me that little bit closer to my goal

Looking good. How good that you are past 10k already. I'll post next week. DH off sick last week so budget went backwards as he doesnt get paid for it. Two steps forward three steps back eh.. it will right itself eventually

Thanks NeverendingDMP. I honestly feel like I am making no progress at all but you are right, I am really happy we have hit the £10k mark. 

Sorry to hear about your hubby - I totally feel for you both - it is so hard being self employed at the moment - especially when you are sick and receive no pay. I hope things are back on track for you soon and he feels better sooner rather than later. 

Take care of yourselves x

It's payday from my cafe job today (I had totally forgotten so I had a nice little surprise when I checked my bank balance) I've transferred it all into the OP savings account so I am declaring another £409.77.

My total is now £10920.18 / £81700 = 13.36% 

Next stop 14% - I've only got another £517.82 to find

£9.90 to add today to add from a FB Marketplace sale. A small amount but still something which is always better than nothing and I have one less piece of clutter in my house so its a win win in my eyes  

My total is now £10930.08 / £81700 = 13.37%

I'm creeping up slowly but surely x

Me again - sorry for hogging thread

The monthly interest has just paid out for the savings account so I can declare a further £474.03 towards the OP mortgage savings fund today.

My total is now £11404.11 / £ 81700 = 13.95% 

I have my chippy wages to pay in so will try and do that later so I can creep past the 14% - fingers crossed I find time to get them paid in at the post office
