    I have crossed out the dates in November up to Monday 16th November and added £46.80 to the savings pot to make a total of £510.40.

    Spreadsheet is updated. Here it is if anyone wishes to check their progress.

    Can I encourage regular posters to check out the test 1p challenge board as next year this is the way the challenge will run rather than one thread and a spreadsheet as it is being taken on to the MSE main board. Once you get used to it I find it good to see the visual evidence of how many days have been ticked off.

    Hi @enthusiasticsaver, I sometimes bung a bit of cashback into that account mid month so I may have under reported and thinking about it, I've probably not included the small amount of interest the account gets either 🙄 but my total is definitely £303.42 - sorry for the confusion x
