    Super Saving Job everyone xxxx
    I just love this challenge - I finished 12k for this year in September, so decided to begin 2025 in October because I know I will have a couple of months that will be very anemic in 2025 and I really wanted to get to the 12k overall target by the end of the year (sig).
    I'm not including any money I make from selling my decluttered stuff as that goes towards the make £2025 in 2025 Challenge. Another I absolutely love <3
    Wishing everone well & I have high hopes that everyone will achieve the savings goal they set this year by the end of 2024.
    Looking forward to rejoining the save 12k challenge again in the 2025!  <3

    #47 t2rry reporting £1,807 for November please

    Slightly odd number because of interest added to accounts that I don't include here but which results in me adding amounts to round my savings accounts up.

    It could be £500 more but I'm being cautious for now, hopefully come the end of the month I'll be able to confirm some of, if not all, that extra.

    Either way that's me over my £20,000 target with a month in hand, can't complain about that!
    Now I have eyes on my stretch target of £25,000.  Something amazing would need to happen to hit it, but I can hopefully chip away at it and get closer to it.

    Apologies for the delay in reporting figures. Savings low due to spending on experiences and visiting loved ones.

    Well Done! o:)
    I too finished all the challenges early in September so decided to begin the same and a couple of other 2025 challenges early in October this year rather than extending any amounts. I like to know that what I wanted to achieve has been achieved, especially as we are now in the silly season of early con Black Friday Sales and more :/:|
    I've even started a new 2025 Christmas Regular Saver @ 7%, not that I ever buy Christmas gifts, as I gift swap and have done for years :D
