    I've just caught up with the spreadsheet. Huge well done everyone, it's amazing what we're collectively acheiving. Congrats to those who have met their target already, that's brilliant!

    My May OP is £546, bringing the total to £2062 I think.

    Thanks for doing this @Julicorn, I'm so pleased with how my challenge is going and I never would have kept on track if it wasn't for the forum. I really appreciate it.
     Debt = £8017/£8017 (100% paid - cleared 26th August 2020) Boiler Fund = £2500/£2500 (100% saved - 26th August 2021)Emergency fund = £5000/£5000 (100% saved - 5th Jan 2025) | Mortgage  = £112,153/£132,469 (15% paid)

    Goal for 2025:
    1) MFW £3905/£3000
