    #39 an extra £15 added to the pot

    I'm trying to add £15 each week so will see how I go, also using the round up option in my bank's app to see how much more I can save.

    One more week of January left if anyone has any updates.  Spreadsheet is updated and link is below. 

    The 365 Day 1p Challenge 2024 - Page 19 — MoneySavingExpert Forum

    I have done up to day 60 so far and finding it a bit frustrating at how low the amount looks for now but I am determined to do it in the classic way this year.  

    Are people doing bank transfers or using a pot and actual coins/notes? I am colouring in a spreadsheet which I find fairly rewarding and moving money over to a savings space attached to my personal bank account.

    i normally at the start of the month try to start it off with anything spare from the month before i try for one pound a day.
    i have three pots in chase a monthly xmas pot and a roundup, at the end of the month i transfer these to another pot for the year, this way i can keep monthly and yearly separate, complicated but it works for me.

    I'm using an otherwise unused savings account and transferred January's money into it from my current account and will continue to do that. I aim to finish in November so will transfer December's savings along with another month's savings - probably in March.
