Fiver Friday Challenge 2026

Hello lovely Fiver Friday challengers! Sorry for the radio silence. We were away for a week in Majorca (lovely) and since we've been back have been sorting Daddy Day Care as my 86yo DDad is here for a month.
I did stick to putting £5 across for the two Fridays I was absent. My total now stands at £125.61.
Thank you for the many updates - all totals now updated on page 1. So lovely to see the amounts being saved without (hopefully) too much effort.
Have a good week everyone.

Good morning everyone,
(…DRUMROLL…) We are now officially HALF WAY THROUGH this challenge whoop 🙌
Hope you've all had a good week and are keeping well in the heat (if you've had any!). I've been ferrying my Dad around a lot this week plus worked my usual two days so it's gone very quickly.
Another fiver into my account today bringing my total saved to date to £130.61.
Glad you're enjoying it @RhiBi - it's amazing how the little and often approach can make a big difference.
Thank you everyone for your updates. All totals amended on page 1.
