    I'm going to aim to make mine Free-fiver Friday, so I'm looking to use 'free' money for it - eg: Prolific, Nectar points spent etc. Might mean that some weeks I don't manage a fiver - but then (hopefully) other weeks I manage more 
    I am the master of my fate; I am the captain of my soul
    Repaid mtge early (orig 11/25) 01/09 £124616 01/11 £89873 01/13 £52546 01/15 £12133 07/15 £NIL

    I had resolved to do ten pound Tuesdays this year but I'm very tempted by your approach 
    Save £12k in 2025 #2 I am at £4863.32 out of £6000 after May (81.05%)
    OS Grocery Challenge in 2025 I am at £1286.68/£3000 or 42.89% of my annual spend so far
    I also Reverse Meal Plan on that thread and grow much of our own premium price fruit and veg, joining in on the Grow your own thread
