2026 - 52 Week Envelope Challenge
Comments
-
Hello everyone,
As the last quarter of the 2026 starts… can I please have the following envelopes for October: 10, 15, 18 & 21 = £64.
The finishing line is in sight and thought about completing the challenge early, but holding back as treading for the water bill to drop through the letterbox at any day….. and it's going to be a biggie.
Let's see where we are at this point next month!

Fab work! I've added these for you.
you've just reminded me I've not upgraded the car-pool vehicle this month so that will be my next job…

Here's a nice big car we can use this month. Collectively we have saved £13395 which is amazing!

And it’s a wrap for me - my last envelopes have been cleared today, totalling £208. Thank you so much @LittleMissDetermined for running this thread, it helps keep me disciplined (ish 🤣) with saving something each month. If you decide to run it again next year (🤞) please count me in. X
Have a lovely weekend everyone.

That's great 🙂 So close to the finish line now, only 11 envelopes to go and as you say, they're smaller so easier!
