    Put me down for 8 and I’ll just work out how many I’ve managed so far.

    It’s hard to know because things don’t clear on the day you pay for them but I’ll guess at one which I know of.

    hi itsthelittlethings and welcome to our lovely thread! I've added you to the list, best of luck with the challenge! Re payments not clearing on the same day, I always count spends on the day I make them, not on the day they come through on my account, if that helps? xx
