This is a reminder to the above that they will be removed from the challenge next week unless they post on the thread to say they wish to remain and have just not updated for whatever reason.enthusiasticsaver said:The spreadsheet has been updated.
I will be removing the following savers at the end of March as they have not posted since signing up back in December/January. The later numbers may have signed up in February and just not updated yet. If you wish me to keep you on the list please post on this thread.

March was a tricky month for me personally and financially. I (#46) saved £24.88 in March.
I'm hoping things will get a bit easier in the coming months. Keep saving everyone!
