    Not quite where I wanted to be but up to 1200 total. I can’t remember my number!

    @BudgetingBelinda you are number 10 (as you have an entry for the thread in your signature, you could just add it there) - I have assumed this total is for March as you had exceeded £1200 for the year to date

    #18 with £1223.64 for March. Very pleased as this puts me slightly ahead of target. No idea what April will bring as changing job/career on the 7th.
    It is the job that is never started that takes the longest to finish. Tolkien.

    Hi all

    Number 43 checking in belatedly.
    £850 for February and another £850 for March dripped into the regular savers.
    Still scratching my head on where the extra will come from to achieve my target... Maybe see if I can find some unwanted things to sell on...

    Many thanks Elmo

    #12 Kim_13 £59.68 added to March, making the total £765.40.

    Waiting on an ISA Transfer which will pay out some interest, but I’m guessing that will probably be April now as the ceding provider does not support electronic transfers and the ISA hasn’t disappeared from their app yet.

    #19 reporting £304.17 for March

    Still under where I need to be for target but we are in the early stages of buying a house so money, and time, is being diverted in that direction for now!
