    Thank you that is true.  I am enjoying the challenge as well.  I feel like the no spend days are a positive.

    My husband pays more than I do for bills so I'm not asking for more.

    I've checked where I am as nearly the end of the month and I need to put £700 a month away so it's going ok.

    This month is going quite well.  I won £100 and cashed out £50 from nectar and jam donut so that's a help.  I've had some money from train journeys that were delayed which has added up to over £100.  I'm keeping food costs down as I've started using slot if the supermarket bargain labels.  Quite happy with how is going.
