Hi all, on this bitterly cold Sunday.
Snow is threatening up here, so we are hunkering down. brrrrrr

Week two complete, so #10 reporting £29.65.
(I forgot to say I'm doing same as last year - a payment a day, but randomly chosen, allows me to colour in a graph:)

hope all good with you @enthusiasticsaver

I haven't got a number yet but I'm ticking along nicely . Saved £22.11 so far and also received 7p interest on the money saved. I'm not going to include the interest towards my daily saving challenge because the interest is my reward at the end on the challenge . Probably enough for a £1 coffee at the local cafe at the end of the year and then I'll only end up doing the 'Do I really need it' challenge

Although it says I'm a newbie, I'm not. I've been a member for donkey's years  I just haven't been into the forum for ages

I do all the challenges every year and my favourite is 'NO Spend Days!' the liberated feeling of walking out the house without my purse is fantastic! I also buy in bulk monthly and sometimes yearly mainly on the staple basics: shampoo, soap, toilet rolls, toothpaste etc etc.

I use apps / loyalty point cards to save money like there's no tomorrow and I only spend the points on things I really need and never on the things I want. I also save my points up until the end of the year to see if there are any double up's available i.e Sainsburys did this this year, so my £40 became £80 plus they had the Christmas challenge but as always, I only shop for the things I need - nothing outside the shopping list I always take with me, but still bagged another £10 on that!

I am also a lover of cashback sites and have the browser extension to them all, so one way or another, I always end up getting the cashback. So far I have £104.89 this year in TopCashback. Plus, Ive bagged £70 worth of money off discount coupons for the items I really need.

Let's hope it carries on 

I really hope that everyone enjoys the challenges they have set themselves for the year. Some are sometimes a little harder than others but the reward is often far greater!

Goodness lots of updates over the last few days.  I have updated the spreadsheet and it is looking less empty now.  Well done savers.
