Good to see some of you already off the starting blocks. I am away coastal walking in West Cornwall for the next few days so will check in again next week.

Goodday al
Brilliant @enthusiasticsaver thanks for allocating my number #56
I have already started the 1p Challenge in my Chlidren's Halifax Kids Savers account offering 5% after 12months
Did it for 2024 and worked out really well as it takes away any temptation of 'borrowing' or having 'sticky fingers' in the 1p Challenge pot!
