    #10 popping in to report up to £20 now. I will continue to do this every week, but may dip into it from time to time as have decided to use it as my savings pot for money for my grandkids.  I want to give them some US$ in the summer when they go to Florida, (there's 4 of them), and then later in the summer the 2 eldest get their GSCE results, so would like to be able to give them a reward then as well.

          1. Hi :) so I've decided to just divide the cash up by months, rather than give myself an additional task each Friday. I only tend to check myt bank account a few times a month these days. I also want to be finished by the end of Nov, so have divided £260 by 11 and transfer £23.64 into savings today :smiley:

            #9 Sorry I haven't been updating but I have been transferring, and have just transferred my final £5 of the month, bringing me to £25.

            I have it in a limited withdrawal account, so hoping to be able to pay the £260 off my credit card at the end of the year (assuming I haven't already paid it off by then!)
