A mix of PB wins, selling some stuff and my usual Tilly tidying brought a savings total of £1174.05 for me for February. Superficially impressive but with house insurance in March it won't be so good!Save £12k in 2025 #2 I am at £2664.85 out of £6000 after March (44.41%)

Due to tax issues for my DH our income has suddenly become erratic (perils of being retired on several different income streams) so we are unlikely to be able to increase our monthly savings until the tax situation is sorted.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the Debt free Wannabe, Budgeting and Banking and Savings and Investment boards.

Suffolk_lass said:Nothing the removal of the gallbladder won't sort but it was very scary for about 4 days. We will certainly be spending less on groceries as the forerunner to that is low/no fat (to control it), plus diet and losing weight, so no Easter chocolate, or other temptations for us.
Oh, I am sorry you are going through that. Thank goodness there are so many low fat foods made these days to make it easier to eat something.
